Proceeding contribution from Russell Brown (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.
Pensions Bill
The hon. Gentleman mentioned his party’s election manifesto pledge to restore the link between pensions and earnings. If my memory serves me correctly, however, it was not a full-blown commitment to restore the link for anything beyond one term. Does he not recognise that the pensioners of this country need and deserve a sustainable system? People are not looking for a policy commitment that lasts for only four or five years.
