I cannot overemphasise the need to remedy this injustice as quickly as possible. I thank the Minister for the detail she provided. It is good that the report will be published next week. Will there be an opportunity to debate the report once it is published, either here or at the sub-committee, or will the Minister be in a position to implement changes immediately? She mentioned earlier that after 2020, a total contributions scheme will be in place. In the event that people find that the new system is not as favourable to them as what is now in place, will they have the option to switch from one to the other to ensure they get the maximum pension available?
