Proceeding contribution from James Duddridge (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 25 February 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Saving Gateway Accounts Bill.


Saving Gateway Accounts Bill

Amendment 13 is insightful, but proposed new subsection (8)(b) refers to those aged between 18 and 65. In a week when a 13-year-old has fathered a child, will my hon. Friend encourage the Economic Secretary to consider whether people would be eligible at 16 or even younger? I do not suggest 13 as an appropriate age, but 16 might be.
