The last time that there was unanimity in the House on a pensions Bill was when Barbara Castle introduced the state earnings-related pension scheme.

Gentleman give an undertaking that for the foreseeable future any Conservative Government will respect the unanimous decisions that I expect the House to make on the Bill?
