Proceeding contribution from Mark Hoban (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 October 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Equitable Life.


Equitable Life

My hon. Friend raises an important point. Some people affected are suffering real hardship, which has been prolonged by the delay in introducing the scheme. Once the Government have decided upon a scheme, having received Sir John Chadwick’s recommendations next spring, I hope they will consider that seriously. There is a real risk that the suffering and hardship will continue without any clear end in sight.
