Annotation | Following on from the Pensions Commission's first report, this report sets out six key principles for reform of the pensions system: it must tackle poverty effectively; the opportunity to build an adequate retirement income should be open to all; affordability and economic stability must be maintained; the pension system should produce fair outcomes for women and carers; reform should seek to establish a system that people understand; and reform should be based around as broad a consensus as possible. This report also outlines changes since 1997 for current pensioners and proposals for the Pension Service. The Government seeks to engage with the public and other stakeholders on the principles outlined in this document. (RH). |
