Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) 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 do not think that was what I said. That misunderstanding may be running over from the previous legislation that we discussed. Transferring individuals between departments does not mean that they do not bring with them their expertise, knowledge and experience, which could well be brought to bear and made good use of. My point was that, simply because they come from another department, there should not be informal transfers of information and loops back to that department. The gateways are there on a statutory basis for very good reasons. Transferees or secondees, just like any other employee of the Pensions Regulator, will be subject to the same processes and procedures.
