Following the excellent question from the noble Baroness, Lady Altmann, on pensions, I am not asking my noble friend the Minister to meet me, but I am asking him to have a look at the British ISA idea, whereby tax-free savings could be focused on British companies. I know that the Labour Party is keen on investment in British companies, as we all are. Will he look again and promote the idea of a British ISA?

I am flattered to be referred to as the noble Lord’s noble friend, and I consider him to be a friend as well. I am more than happy to look at his ideas.
