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

If the question was whether these powers give us authority in relation to FAS, my answer is that I doubt that they do. I would need to take advice on what powers we have in legislation to then by regulation introduce them. If I receive a note from my officials’ box by the time that I sit down, I shall give that answer to my noble friend now. If not, I shall certainly follow up the point because I understand the issue that she raises.
