Public Sector: Pensions
- Question
- To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what estimate he has made of the effect on public expenditure of raising the public sector pension age to 68 on a phased basis in line with the increase in the state pension age; and if he will make a statement.
- Answer
-
No estimate of the effect on public expenditure of raising the public sector pension age to 68 on a phased basis in line with the increase in the state pension age has been made. Occupational pensions, such as public sector pensions, involve different structures and rights to state pensions, which make it far more administratively complex and costly to apply phasing in such a way.
