I am glad to be a Member of this House at this time, because it means I will receive my pension as soon as I leave it. I understand there will be small difficulties for other people. There is always a slightly positive element to these matters, however. As far as this House is concerned, it is probably a good thing that people come into politics with special expertise from areas such as medicine, teaching and law and then return to such areas. I do not see why the State should give pensions to people who return to lucrative jobs before they reach the pension age. There is plenty of life in them after politics. We should be satisfied that they will be able to find another use for their talents.
