Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hollis of Heigham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 17 June 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.
Pensions Bill
I would also very much welcome statistics on that. The figures that I gave were for half median earnings, not median earnings. I absolutely take the point that a 16 year-old will not be on median earnings, but half median earnings—£10,000 to £11,000—for a young woman who by 18 or 19 is a qualified hairdresser is perhaps not an unreasonable assumption.
