Clause 16
Pensions Bill
2:00 pm

David Laws (Shadow Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, Work & Pensions; Yeovil, Liberal Democrat)
I promised brevity on the previous clause and that is what I shall deliver now. We also support the amendment, but the hon. Gentleman got in there first—he obviously reads his e-mails more rapidly than I do. He put the case extremely well. We support the amendment, and hope that he is right that the Under-Secretary will accept it and that it will be one of those home runs that we have on every Bill.
