Trade Union Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Monks (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 25 February 2016. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bills on Trade Union Bill.

I remind the Minister about workplace pensions. They are a very recent auto-enrolment initiative. They do not go back to the 1990s; they go back about two years. They are based on payroll deductions. They are not old-fashioned; they are efficient. They are the way to do things. They are much cheaper than direct debit and much easier for people to handle. That is why, on a consensus basis, auto-enrolment is based on payroll deductions.
