Dr Coffey

My hon. Friend rightly draws attention to than important point. As a result of actions by this Government, the UK is the first major economy to put climate risk and disclosure into statute for pension schemes, leading the way on the issue, having already legislated for net zero by 2050 and introduced ESG—environment, social and governance—legislation through 2018 amendments to the occupational pension schemes investment regulations. I genuinely look forward to the time when we manage to complete the Pension Schemes Bill to bring all that into effect.
