I need to declare an interest because yesterday morning, in the post, I received my ballot paper for the election of the general secretary of my union. I looked at it. Of course, I will be voting —I will not tell your Lordships for whom—but it seemed abs
My Lords, I speak in favour of these regulations. Despite the case made by the noble Baroness, Lady Stedman-Scott, there was much in what she said about the purpose of reviews with which I agree: they are in the interests of the claimants and of the publ

Perhaps I may first welcome my noble friend the Minister to her rightful place on the Front Bench. I thank her for her Answer. We look forward to the progress of the commission to the agreed timetable, but I have concerns that it is only one leg of a thr

To broaden the issue slightly to investors getting advice from AI apps, such as Gemini, ChatGPT and Claude, do these apps owe the client consumer duty?
I thank my noble friend for her answers and the work she is doing on this appalling situation. It is clear from her answers that the obstruction of humanitarian aid accessing the country and being distributed is happening on a tremendous scale. This is c

No, I am not for one moment suggesting that. I am saying that, in other discussions, I have heard it said explicitly or by implication. It is a danger and, given what we are trying to achieve, it is one that we should recognise and take account of.

I cannot but support the desire for greater public understanding of financial matters. The noble Baroness, Lady Neville-Rolfe, and the noble Lord, Lord Holmes of Richmond, have made a powerful case for better understanding, but I am not convinced that t

The noble Lord makes a compelling case, but can he say what is meant by “facilitate” in the amendment?

I thank my noble friend the Minister for her reply. The issue is getting a return to normal service standards, which was hoped to be achieved by June—by today—but clearly it simply has not happened. Many new pensioners are still losing their earnings inc

Civil Service Pension Scheme
To ask his Majesty’s Government what further steps they are taking to resolve difficulties being experienced with the administration of the Civil Service Pension Scheme, in particular the failure to pay new pensioners.
I very much welcome the response from my noble friend the Minister. It is of particular importance that the variation in the schemes’ practice is part of the review, and obviously a full consultation will be required. When people provided with a pension

This is an important and interesting debate. I want to draw attention to and base my remarks on Amendment 95, which refers specifically to the poverty premium in insurance. This is a theme that runs across financial services. It perhaps does not get the

I shall speak to Amendment 23 in the name of my noble friend Lord Sikka. He very much regrets not being able to be here, but I hope that the Minister will still respond to the point that it raises.
The key issue is that there is a public service eleme

That is what the Minister will need to make clear in the letter. I urge him to make that point clear. Who decides whether the principles have been followed—or is that one of the issues that have to be referred to the FCA under Clause 7?

As one always says in this situation, I will read what the Minister said with care. I have to admit that I was a little disappointed on the “fair and reasonable” test, but on close analysis it may prove to be better. In particular, I hope I will have a c

To pursue that, are we being misled by the use of the word “rules” here? There is guidance as well as rules. The principles are not rules, but the principles have to be followed, and they include things such as treating the customer properly. Is that rig
