Proceeding contribution from Lord Skelmersdale (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 7 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.
Pensions Bill
My Lords, surely that cannot be right. When my noble friend Lord Fowler introduced portability of pensions, it was necessary to have primary legislation. I know that in recent years the Government have changed the length of time for which one has to hold a pension before it becomes portable and that, I think, was done by statutory instrument. None the less, if a change such as the noble Lord has just talked about should come about, I would be very surprised if it was not by primary legislation.
