Public Service Pensions Bill

Proceeding contribution from John Healey (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 4 December 2012. It occurred during Debate on bills on Public Service Pensions Bill.

My hon. Friend is making a powerful case and sounding a clear warning. She mentions that clause 7(1) refers to

“a defined contributions scheme, or

( c) a scheme of any other description.”

Would she like to point out to the House that this potential change in clause 7 could in theory, under subsection (5), be brought in by way of a negative resolution—by a statutory instrument that would not allow a debate in this Chamber or even a 90-minute debate in a Committee upstairs?
