Annotation | As part of the contribution by Age Concern England (ACE) to the debate following the Pensions Commission report (November 2005) and leading up to the White Paper, "Security in retirement: towards a new pensions system" (Cm 6841; May 2006), some 30 local Age Concerns ran "listening events". This Policy response outlines the main points and recommendations, chief of which are: restoring the basic state pension earnings link; reform to the contributory system; a new scheme of personal accounts to encourage savings; and a gradual increase in the state pension age (SPA).
