Proceeding contribution from Lord Skelmersdale (Conservative) 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 strongly agree with the noble Baroness, Lady Hollis—she may think ““for once””, but in fact I have agreed with her on numerous occasions. The noble Lord, Lord McKenzie, will remember that I requested in, I think, the CMEC legislation, although it might have been the Welfare Reform Bill, that we should have orders debated in the affirmative manner the first time around and thereafter slipping down to the negative resolution procedure precisely for the reasons given by the noble Baroness. I am afraid that for once the noble Lord, Lord Kirkwood, is not on to a winner.
