Clause 29 - Prohibition orders
Pensions Bill
10:45 am

Mr Chris Pond (Parliamentary Under-Secretary, Department for Work and Pensions; Gravesham, Labour)
Yes, if you like—bookies.
Clause 29 concerns the prohibition of people from being trustees of pension schemes. Amendment No. 151 suggests an additional word: that prohibition should take place ''forthwith''. The amendment would have no effect, as the intention is that such orders would take force immediately.
