My opening post has now been amended to include links to the official press releases, the press releases for each region and the announcement for compensation to the Equitable Life policyholders. [ more ]
The main surprise in today's announcement was this: From the BBC: The state pension age will now rise to 66 by 2020 for both men and women, the Chancellor, George Osborne, has said. The plan brings forward by six years the plan that the previous Labour government had put in place. Mr Osborne told MPs that the increase from 65 to 66 would be phased in from 2018. This will also accelerate the existing plan under which women's pension age would have been equalised with men at age 65, by 2020. [ more ]
