SUPERANNUATION BILL: Second Reading.
|
[Until 10.00 pm]
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
That this House, whilst affirming its belief that civil service compensation should be reformed, declines to give a Second
Reading to the Superannuation Bill because it provides inadequate protection for some of the lowest paid and longest serving
public sector workers; believes that the reform proposals of February 2010 were fair, reasonable and non-age discriminatory,
offering protection for the lowest paid workers whilst making substantial savings; and is strongly of the opinion that the
publication of such a Bill should have been preceded by a full process of pre-legislative scrutiny of a draft Bill and in
full consultation with Civil Service employees.
|
|
|
The oral evidence taken before the Public Administration Select Committee on 27 July (HC 397), on the Civil service compensation
scheme, is relevant to the debate.
|
|
Debate may continue until 10.00 pm.
