HC Deb 16 December 2002 vol 396 cc619-20W
Mr. Jim Cunningham

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions what steps he plans to take to ensure that people have confidence in the pensions they are investing in. [86891]

Mr. McCartney

It is clearly important that individuals have confidence in the long term stability of the pension system. We are publishing a Green Paper on pensions on 17 December that will look at pensions policy in the round. It will make a range of proposals to encourage more pensions saving and to balance the competing issues in pensions policy. The proposals will be designed for the long-term, as people need to be able to plan and make decisions for the future.
