Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 14 July 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.


Pensions Bill

I am more than happy to set up a meeting with officials from the Treasury or HMRC. I do so, in all honesty, without any great hope that they will see a way through this that is satisfactory because there are real concerns, but they may be able to articulate those more effectively than I have been able to. Yes, of course, the Government listen to this House but they also listen to the other place which has declared itself on this point on several occasions. On the crucial issue of the tax component, the other place has particular primacy.
