I understand the sentiments behind amendments Nos. 25 and 26, but they are substantively already reflected in the current principles. We do not have to adopt the UN principles to include the principles that are set out in clause 70. The principles that we have already included are designed to be considered together,
22 Apr 2008 : Column 1267
and as a whole they ensure that members’ needs will always be embedded in the authority’s work when it prepares the scheme’s draft investment strategy. Further changes to the principles are simply not necessary.

We want to set out the way in which personal accounts will develop. The hon. Member for Eastbourne pretty much implied that the UN principles would apply to one investment account only, and not to the whole operation of the pension schemes. What we are looking at is a default scheme that will have a very limited number of additional options to which potential pensioners can sign up. Paul Myners said that he did not want all the bells and whistles put on; he just wants to ensure a simple, basic scheme, although there will be some options.

After consultation, some members of the Personal Accounts Board may well take the view that they want an option that will enable ethical investment, and decide that the principles for ethical investment have to include the UN principles that we have discussed. I would applaud such a decision, but I want things to be done in a proper, sensible way, through consultation with potential members and stakeholders, and I want discretion to be given to the trustees in due course. The Conservatives and Liberal Democrats are wrong to seek to deny them that discretion.

This debate has touched on some fundamental principles, including the principle that it is for trustees, and not the Government or Members of the House, to determine the best interests of members of the pension scheme. I ask Members to accept that the authority and autonomy of the trustees is important, and that we should not constrain them any further than the existing legal framework does.

Mr. Waterson: I am amazed at how tetchy the Minister has been. He talks about Guardian readers; there was a time when it would have been Conservative Front Benchers arguing in the last ditch against ethical investment principles, and his party arguing the opposite. Has he not noticed that politics has changed dramatically in the last 18 months? It is time that he adjusted to it.

The Minister’s response was wholly inadequate and bad tempered, and failed to appreciate that we are discussing not any old investment fund, but the personal accounts fund into which people will be automatically enrolled. Most people listening to the debate will want to see the principles established, not least Mr. Myners, who has given his name to some existing principles for investment. On that basis I shall press—

It being Nine o’clock, Mr. Deputy Speaker put forthwith the Question already proposed from the Chair, pursuant to Order [7 January].

Question put, That the clause be read a Second time:—
