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

When I was a junior Minister in the Northern Ireland department, it was made clear to me that the Province was very keen to hang on to its own statute book. That also applied to some social security legislation, which, although it paralleled what was going on in the rest of the country, was not absolutely identical. It occurs to me to ask the Minister whether this position still exists or whether some sort of Northern Ireland order will accompany this legislation, when enacted.
