Proceeding contribution from George Hollingbery (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 23 February 2012. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Pensions and Social Security.
Pensions and Social Security
I seem to recall some embarrassment in the Labour party back in 2000 when the low rate of 1.1% was used to uprate pensions, the result of which was a 75p increase. Does the right hon. Gentleman agree that, under this Government, the triple lock will ensure that 2.5% is the minimum that can be paid?
