Proceeding contribution from Baroness Clark of Kilwinning (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 1 March 2012. It occurred during Backbench debate and e-petition debate on CPI/RPI Pensions Uprating.


CPI/RPI Pensions Uprating

Does my hon. Friend agree that one concern about the shift, which will reduce people's pensions, is that people might opt out of pension schemes? One impact that that might have is to put people even further into poverty, so they will have to apply for state benefits. The shift will therefore not end up as a money-making exercise for the Government.
