83. Mrs. Thatcher

asked the Minister of Pensions and National Insurance if she will make a statement about Her Majesty's Government's future policy towards private occupational pension schemes.

Miss Herbison

I have no statement to make at present.

89. Dr. Bray

asked the Minister of Pensions ad National Insurance whether the proposed new national superannuation scheme will require the full transferability of pensions in private schemes.

Miss Herbison

Policy on this matter must take account of several considerations besides the national superannuation scheme, and I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given on 22nd February by my right hon. Friend the Minister of Labour to the hon. Members for Louth (Sir C. Osborne) and Worcester (Mr. Peter Walker).

91. Lord Balniel
