Pensions Bill [Lords]

Debate between Baroness Primarolo and Malcolm Wicks

Tuesday 18th October 2011 Commons Chamber

[Malcolm Wicks]

rose—

[Madam Deputy Speaker (Dawn Primarolo)]

Order. May I help the hon. Member for South Basildon and East Thurrock (Stephen Metcalfe)? I follow closely the question of women’s pension age and longevity, but he should not be addressing me—which is what he is doing when he says “you”—he should be addressing the rest of the Members in the Chamber. He has used that term several times now, and I gently ask him to observe the convention.

[Malcolm Wicks]

I cannot tell the hon. Gentleman how many of those people were still working when they died—although I want to say something later about the circumstances of that group of people.
