| Annotation | IPPR's project on "A new contract for retirement", of which this research is a part, aims to look at both pensions and long-term care policy, to set out a sustainable policy settlement. For this report, primary qualitative research was conducted to understand public attitudes on three issues linked to public policy in retirement: means-testing in relation to pensions and long-term care; giving or receiving an inheritance; and expectations about caring for others in old age. The research sought the views of three different generations: over 75s, ages 50-65, and ages 30-45. (RH). |
