Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 10 July 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.


Pensions Bill

Until the detailed work on the design of the scheme and all that goes with it has been completed, it is impossible to answer that question. We need to do that work to determine what the final costs will be. I do not understand why that is a difficulty for the noble Baroness. It is absolutely plain that, until we have done the work and know the detail involved, how it is going to be put together and what the final and full design is, we cannot give final costings. That is not an unreasonable position.
