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

My colleagues in another place will be delighted that a clause of this sort is now to be included in the Bill, and I congratulate the Minister on moving this amendment, to which I do not object—but I have a problem. He said that employers could be made to re-enrol a worker where they have persuaded him to opt out with either financial inducements or any other inducements, perhaps payment of overtime. When all that is settled and the employer is clearly in the wrong, it may be that the worker in question will still want to opt out, now of his own volition. Has the Minister considered what would happen then in relation to Amendment No. 106A?
