Proceeding contribution from Stewart Hosie (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 February 2007. It occurred during Legislative debate on Social Security.
Social Security
The hon. Gentleman has referred to complexity and bureaucracy several times, particularly in relation to pensioner benefits. Does he assume that his commission looking into this issue will end means-testing for pensions and the pension credit, or will the Conservative party stay wedded to them?
