The cash-for-questions affair was a controversial political scandal in 1990sBritain. It was alleged by The Guardian newspaper and Granada Television, that certain members of Parliament had been accepting bribes in exchange for asking parliamentary questions, and other tasks.
The initial story was that Neil Hamilton and Tim Smith had accepted 2000 each to ask questions, paid via Ian Greer. The allegations were confirmed by Mohammed al-Fayed, who claims to have been the paymaster. Smith resigned immediately, but Hamilton and Greer sued. The court case was later abandoned. Since then, Hamilton has sued Mohammed al-Fayed, lost, was ordered to pay costs, and subsequently declared bankruptcy.
Consequences involved the Nolan Committee, and the Register of Members' Interests, as well as the defeat of Hamilton at the 1997 general election by independent candidate Martin Bell.
In a typical cash balance plan, a participant's account is credited each year with a pay credit (such as 5 percent of compensation from his or her employer) and an interest credit (either a fixed rate or a variable rate that is linked to an index such as the one-year Treasury bill rate).
In many cash balance plans, however, the participant could instead choose (with consent from his or her spouse) to take a lump sum benefit equal to the $100,000 account balance.
Participation in typical cash balance plans generally does not depend on the workers contributing part of their compensation to the plan; however, participation in a 401(k) plan does depend, in whole or in part, on an employee choosing to make a contribution to the plan.
