Committee on Budgetary Oversight

Economic and Fiscal Position: Economic and Social Research Institute

Professor Alan Barrett:

No. Since I have meandered into it, can I make one small proposal on pension relief? In terms of the USC - and it is hard to get away from it - one of the proposals that has floated around and with which members will be familiar is, if the USC is going to be abolished or phased out, whether it would be a good idea to convert it into a mandatory pension contribution in the context of the pensions crisis that most people would accept is there. That is strand one.
