Proceeding contribution from Lord Skelmersdale (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 23 June 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.


Pensions Bill

As I said, the amendments only allow the Government to ensure it; they do not make provision for it to happen as and when necessary, which is what we need in this situation. I accept that the noble Lord is probably right that state pension age will not be matched exactly but, none the less, there ought to be a provision to do it, not just to enable the Government to do it.
