Pensions Forum – Building consensus
This forum is now closed. These pages are retained as an archive of the discussions and debates that took place while it was live.
The Forum was created to build a lasting consensus on pensions.
The following key pensions issues were explained in more detail:
- Creating personal accounts – introducing auto-enrolment into a low-cost scheme of personal accounts
- Restoring the earnings link – providing a firm foundation for private saving
- Modernising the contributory principle to better provide for women and carers
- Gradually raising the state pension age to ensure sustainability
- Continuing to tackle pensioner poverty
- Simplifying the choices for employees, trustees and employers
