Pension Schemes Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Nigel Mills (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 16 November 2020. It occurred during Debate on bills on Pension Schemes Bill [Lords].

I was coming on to say that there are better ways we could do this. I accept that we should encourage funds as strongly as we can to use the vast sums at their disposal to support investment in climate goals and other socially positive activities, but that should be done in part through member choice. There should be eco-friendly pension schemes and socially responsible ones, but they should allow their members to choose to opt into those schemes, and not have them as the default, if they are going to have a lower pension at the end of it.
