Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection
Report on Pension Charges: Discussion with Department of Social Protection
1:40 pm
Ms Patricia Murphy:
The point I made earlier is also relevant in that regard. It has been done for PRSAs. Ultimately, the difficulty with fixing a price is that it becomes the actual price and perhaps reduces competition. These are the points that are made in the report. The report also recommends that PRSAs - and how they fared - should be considered in greater detail. That would be helpful. Obviously, however, that would be a decision for the Minister and the Government to make in the context of policy in the future.
