Social Welfare and Pensions Bill 2011: Second Stage
2:00 pm
Darragh O'Brien (Fianna Fail)
The Minister also said she would protect pensions and increase pension provisions. I will not go over the 100 days and the 100 U-turns yet because I actually hope this Government does well. The provisions of this Bill are being paid for by a raid on the private pension funds of people who were prudent and did what consecutive Governments asked, which was to save for retirement.
