Proceeding contribution from Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay (Liberal Democrat) 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

The noble Baroness’s amendment seems fair and sensible. We look forward to hearing from the Minister what a reasonable administrative period would be or whether he thinks that there are practical problems. However, the principle that an employee should get the full benefit of the matching employer contributions if those contributions are delayed through no fault on the part of the employee—and as long as there is not a strong excuse on the part of the employer—seems to us to be the right one.
