Part of Pensions Bill – in a Public Bill Committee at 4:15 pm on 29 January 2008.
The hon. Gentleman has raised a good point. I am not entirely sure whether three months would be the right figure. Many of us get chased up a lot sooner than three months if we owe money, and rightly so in many cases. Provided, as we have debated, the payment is made with interest, it perhaps does not matter exactly what that figure is. The important point is that the payment is made and that it is made with interest, but the hon. Gentleman is right in that the payment needs to be chased up.
