Proceeding contribution from Mike Weir (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 1 March 2010. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Social Security.
Social Security
My hon. Friend mentions the deferred pensions, but there is an issue of fairness, because a constituent came to see me about that very issue and made the point very clearly that, when she agreed to defer her pension, she was promised—in documentation that she was given and which she showed me—that it would be increased annually, along with the basic pension. The Government have broken that promise. Does my hon. Friend not agree that that is unacceptable?
