Proceeding contribution from Lord Newby (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 2 April 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Saving Gateway Accounts Bill.
Saving Gateway Accounts Bill
I am grateful for that comment. My concern about financial literacy and the effort that the Government are making is that the sensible proposals in the Thoreson report, for example, which are being implemented by pathfinder, are being implemented very slowly. It is yet to be ascertained how successful that pathfinder will be. While I am grateful to the Minister for what he says, I am not absolutely persuaded that the argument for the automatic reissue of a notice of eligibility is a poor one, and I may want to return to it on Report. For today, however, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 6 withdrawn. Clause 2 agreed.
