questionText: To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether he has made an assessment of the adequacy of the Financial Assistance Scheme for individuals who lost occupational pensions because their sponsoring employer became insolvent.
answerText: The information required to carry out such an assessment is not readily available and to obtain the detail needed would take significant time. The Secretary of State has therefore made no such assessment and does not intend to do so at this stage.
