Proceeding contribution from Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay (Liberal Democrat) 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

It would be churlish of me not to support these amendments, particularly as the noble Baroness has so kindly made the speech for me and referred to me several times. She asked whether I remember the debates on the order in 2006. I think of little else; I find them far better than counting sheep. I have only one question for the Minister. Could he please explain what the difference is between ““affordable sustainability”” and ““sustainable affordability””?
