Proceeding contribution from Mike O'Brien (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 25 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.
Pensions Bill
The Government did not accept the lifeboat scheme for the very reason that we set out, which the Young review confirmed—that the basis of the scheme was full of financial holes. The Young report stated clearly that the idea that sitting in pension and insurance funds are assets that could easily be accessed is unrealistic as an option to help those pensioners.
