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

Having been rather intemperate on my last intervention—unnaturally intemperate, I hope—I congratulate the Government on acceding to the suggestions of the Delegated Powers and Regulatory Reform Committee. I have no complaint about the rationale behind Clauses 7 and 8, and I agree with the Committee and the Government that the regulations should be by affirmative instrument, not by negative resolution.
