Proceeding contribution from Oliver Heald (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 October 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Equitable Life.
Equitable Life
Does my hon. Friend agree that one of the biggest challenges facing this country is persuading people to save for their future, particularly in the form of pensions? Half the population do not do so at the moment, so a saga such as this, in which people have no confidence in the pensions that they have bought, is an absolute policy disaster. The matter needed addressing a long time ago, and it is time the Government got on with it.
