Proceeding contribution from Angela Eagle (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 March 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Raising of the Pension Age.


Raising of the Pension Age

I will deal with the point about an unpromising start in my main response, but I want my hon. Friend at least to admit that the 8 per cent. contribution he talks about in the national employment savings trust is the minimum. We anticipate that many employers and employees will see the sense in saving, especially over time, and will increase their contributions from that minimum.
