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

To clarify the issue, does the hon. Lady understand that what the residence criterion means for the citizen’s pension is that the number of years of residence in a country rather than national insurance contributions provide entitlement? That is totally different from being resident in a country at the time when the pensions are paid.
