Speaking in the House of Lords on 12 January 2026

Debate

Pension Schemes Bill

Contribution

I am so sorry, but this is a really important point. In Clause 2(4), paragraphs (a), (b) and (c)—in particular paragraph (c), to which my amendment seeks to add something—state that we are talking about “strategic asset allocation or target ranges for growth and income”. That absolutely sounds as though the Government could—it is “may”, not “must”, so it may not happen—leave the door open to directing investments in the way the Minister says the Government do not wish to do. I would be grateful for some clarification; I do not need it now, as I am happy either for the Minister to write or for us to meet to discuss it.
