Part of State Pension Credit Bill [Lords] – in a Public Bill Committee at 11:45 am on 16 April 2002.

An elderly person with a United Kingdom pension entitlement may want to move to live with a daughter in Australia or Canada. Decency should enable that to be done without any inhibitions on the pensions front.
