Portcullis Pension Scheme And Rights Of Staff

EDM number 1700 in 2002-03, proposed by Alan Beith on 16/09/2003.

That this House welcomes the introduction of the Portcullis pension plan, particularly for those on the staff of honourable Members who do not have existing pension arrangements, those in new employment, and those who have established that it offers better provision than their existing arrangements; but does not wish the staff of honourable Members to be compelled to join the scheme if they assess that it is likely to be inferior to their existing pension arrangements or is otherwise against their expressed wishes.

This motion has been signed by a total of 118 MPs.
