AnnotationThe Government's Green Paper, "A new contract for welfare: partnership in pensions" (Cm 4179), proposes fundamental changes to the UK's retirement income system. Members of CASE and of the Department of Social Policy at LSE have looked at the likely implications of the reforms for pensioner poverty, income security in old age, economic growth, the National Insurance system, tax reliefs, and women. This brief summarises their conclusions, as contained in: "Tightropes and tripwires: New Labour's proposals and means-testing in old age" by Katherine Rake, Jane Falkingham and Martin Evans (CASE paper 23); and "Partnership in pensions? responses to the pensions Green Paper", by Phil Agulnik, Nicholas Barr, Jane Falkingham, and Katherine Rake (CASE paper 24).
