Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 4 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.
Pensions Bill
My Lords, this House should be about trying to, if it feels it appropriate, pass proper amendments to improve the legislation as it sees right. I think that the mood of the House in this debate will be very clear to anyone reading the record; an amendment is not needed to get that expression across clearly. I stress that we are dealing with very serious issues here. The House should not press an amendment that, with great respect to my noble friend, is technically deficient, restrictive, does not achieve what she wants and creates a problem that we are still working on. I ask my noble friend to withdraw it.
