Public Service Pensions Bill

Proceeding contribution from Mike Freer (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 4 December 2012. It occurred during Debate on bills on Public Service Pensions Bill.

My hon. Friend makes a good point, but if he revisits some of the private sector schemes, he will find that they rely on actuarial and physical evidence provided by various medical boards, and that the retirement age in certain private sector schemes already reflects the physical demands of certain roles. In an intervention, I mentioned, rather light-heartedly, people such as steeplejacks and jockeys, but there are other roles whose physical demands are reflected in certain private sector pension schemes, which already have mechanisms in place.
