Clive Lewis MP, Labour’s Shadow Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, commenting on reports that the pensions regulator is stepping up its investigation of Philip Green, said: 

“Four months after Sir Philip Green promised to make good the pensions deficit created by his shoddy management of BHS, and weeks after MPs voted unanimously to strip Green of his knighthood, tens of thousands of pensioners are still waiting to find out the fate of their pensions.

“Let’s hope that, by stepping up their investigations, the pensions regulator will finally hold Philip Green to account and give those pensioners the security they deserve.”
