Proceeding contribution from Lord Maclennan of Rogart (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 1 December 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Superannuation Bill.


Superannuation Bill

My Lords, I thank the noble Baroness for moving the amendment and I join the noble Lord, Lord McKenzie, in sending good wishes to the noble Baroness, Lady Turner. However, I fear the amendment as drafted goes too wide, as was implicit in the remarks made by the noble Lord, Lord McKenzie. It might have the effect of reinstating the veto, which it is the purpose of this Bill in large measure to withdraw. I am glad to recognise what was said in another place by Tessa Jowell and the inconsistency of that, as I see it, with the amendment tabled.
