Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he will hold discussions with the Financial Conduct Authority to bring forward its postponed 2017 review of the effectiveness of Independent Governance Committees in protecting consumer interests in contract-based pension schemes.

This is an operational matter for the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), who are operationally independent from Government.

The question has been passed on to the FCA. The FCA will reply directly to the Hon. Member by letter. A copy of the letter will be placed in the Library of the House.
