Proceeding contribution from John McDonnell (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
We need to be clear about what the then Chancellor introduced. He confirmed the measure of CPI for macro-economic policy with regard to comparisons across Europe. At that point, the intention was not to use it for pensions increases themselves, although a number of us said that if it was translated to the uprating of pensions or benefits, we would oppose it.
