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

I congratulate the noble Lord, Lord Skelmersdale, on his hard work in drafting this, and for the extensive evidence of what is going on in DBERR. I am sorry that I am not as au fait with that as I should be. However, I am bound to say that this seems a pretty light slap on the wrist—or, should I say, half a slap on the wrist with the 50 per cent discount. I look forward to hearing what the Minister says, but the Conservative approach is rather lenient here.
