Statements like this should
not be used unless you have 100% evidence that it is true. You made finite statement and I hazard a guess that you have absolutely nothing to go on except speculation. It is a dangerous thing to do and somewhat unfair to those people who read this and do not fully understand the debate.

This is exactly the situation. Our pension is still terribly expensive and these changes do nto make it any more attractive. Not in the slightest! Besides, why would NATS sell of NSL when it is one of the main contributors to NATS debt and costs?! Remember NSL is unrestricted...
