Proceeding contribution from Mark Hendrick (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 22 April 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.


Pensions Bill

My hon. and learned Friend speaks of more people contributing—often people from very poor backgrounds. He knows that some people have been contributing to pension funds for many years, but their pension fund may go bust and they may fall ill with a terminal illness. That is a serious matter, which new clause 22 deals with. I am concerned that we might not reach that proposal in the course of the debate. What is his opinion on the situation that I described?
