Proceeding contribution from Danny Alexander (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 2 November 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Public Service Pensions.


Public Service Pensions

It is true that in the private sector an enormous volume of contributions would be necessary to build up the pension pot that is required to fund the pensions that we are discussing today. The equivalent would be a pension pot of £600,000 or £700,000 a year. That is a measure of the Government's recognition of the commitment that public service workers make.
