Proceeding contribution from Lord Skelmersdale (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 4 June 2007. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.
Pensions Bill
It seems to me that we are departing from a principle with which I thought we all agreed: namely, the contributory principle. At the moment, the only dent in that contributory principle is the six years relating to voluntary contributions. Extending that further will increase the debt until eventually it becomes a gaping hole, will it not?
