§ Mr. Frank FieldTo ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will list the 10 companies included in the survey commissioned from KPMG Peat Marwick by the 641W Securities and Investments Board recently, on the transferring of assets from occupational to private pension schemes.
§ Mr. Nelson[holding answer 18 January 1994]: The survey was commissioned by SIB. I understand that the firms included in the survey—10 LAUTRO regulated firms, eight IMRO regulated firms and 43 members of FIMBRA—were chosen as firms representative of those involved in the selling of personal pensions. Because the study was intended to establish the extent of compliance in the industry as a whole it would be unfair and misleading to single out those firms included in the survey by publishing their names.
