Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what progress the Government has made on brining forward legislative proposals to prohibit pensions cold-calling.

The government is committed to banning pensions cold-calling. Following a consultation, the government will bring forward draft legislation for scrutiny to ban pensions cold-calling, including texts and emails, in early 2018. It will then legislate on a ban as soon as Parliamentary time allows.
