Proceeding contribution from Kali Mountford (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 March 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Occupational Pensions.


Occupational Pensions

In my view, ordinary people’s typical behaviour when making what they perceive as an ordinary decision in ordinary circumstances is at the heart of the matter. Will my right hon. Friend therefore further consider how those people can be quickly supported through the financial assistance scheme, so that those who are retiring imminently or fairly soon have some assurance about their immediate future? Will he also consider the advice that ordinary people are given in what they perceive to be in ordinary circumstances? Will he examine how advice is published—I have asked for that on previous occasions—so that such situations can be avoided in future?
