Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 5 July 2010. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on State Pension Credit Pilot Scheme Regulations 2010.


State Pension Credit Pilot Scheme Regulations 2010

Perhaps we can just be clear on this fairly narrow point. If somebody in receipt of payments under the pilot refrains during that period from making a claim for pension credit, is there a risk that they could be disadvantaged? If they have a claim for pension credit, I think it will open up some passporting opportunities. I was probing whether that passporting will exist in the interim if a payment is made under the pilot which is not the result of an actual claim to pension credit at that stage.
