Proceeding contribution from Lord Tyrie (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 20 December 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Public Service Pensions.


Public Service Pensions

By far the most important point in this statement—the one that the Chief Secretary touched on only briefly—is that it demonstrates to the markets that the Government will remain committed to sound public finance. Does that not stand in contrast to a number of eurozone countries, not least France, which are finding such measures extremely difficult to implement, and are paying the price in much higher debt service costs?
