Pensions Reform

Proceeding contribution from David Drew (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 27 June 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Pensions Reform.
I agree entirely with my hon. Friend, but the problem is that those who took early retirement often had their pensions massively enhanced as a way of buying them out of the labour market. The logic was that those people would not cost that much because their life expectancy was much lower, but that has not been the case. That is a huge burden on some professional schemes.
