Proceeding contribution from Lord Fowler (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 4 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.
Pensions Bill
My Lords, before the noble Lord sits down, I understood his argument at the beginning to be that an independent pensions commission would have a destabilising effect on the implementation of his reforms. I think ““destabilising”” was the word he used. What happens if the department gets it wrong in implementing the reforms he wants, or one part of those reforms? Does he not feel that some form of post-legislative scrutiny would be of help to him? Or is he closing the door on all post-legislative scrutiny?
