Pension Schemes Bill

Proceeding contribution from Iain Duncan Smith (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 2 September 2014. It occurred during Debate on bills on Pension Schemes Bill.

I have become a little confused about the Opposition’s position, so perhaps the hon. Gentleman could clear something up. I was listening carefully to what he said. There was confusion when the Budget announcement was made, but finally the shadow Secretary of State said the Opposition supported the proposal. From what the shadow Minister has said today, however, it sounds like they do not support it and now neither support nor oppose it. Will he clarify their position? Do they support the idea of people choosing what to do with their own money when they come to buy their annuity?
