Proceeding contribution from David Laws (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.

Pensions Bill

I agree with what the hon. Gentleman says about the importance of accurate advice, but did he hear the Secretary of State say earlier that he believed that the vast majority of people going in for personal accounts could expect a return of better than £2 for every £1 put in? Does not that contrast with the Department’s published research, which says that most people will get £1 for every £1 that they put in?
