Proceeding contribution from Danny Alexander (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 20 December 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Public Service Pensions.


Public Service Pensions

I hesitate to use the word ““veto”” at the Dispatch Box, even in answer to the hon. Lady's tempting question. It is traditional for Scottish schemes to proceed by analogy with our United Kingdom schemes. I hope that that will continue, and that the intransigent opposition of the Scottish Government to any pension reform will cease. Of course, as with contributions, if the Scottish Government choose to proceed differently they will have to bear the cost.
