Proceeding contribution from Lord Skelmersdale (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 30 June 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.


Pensions Bill

That might have been a hopeful opportunity, but it was also a fairly hopeful response. I shall come to this on another set of amendments, but I do not understand the difference between employment law and pensions law in this area and why they should be different. I agree with the Minister that if my amendment made it possible for there to be two prosecutions of the same employer for the offence, that would be total nonsense. I shall read carefully what he said. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
