I tabled this question to elicit some clarification on the Government's proposed total contributions system for contributory old age pensions. A baseline of 30 years was discussed initially but the recently published Government paper refers to a baseline of 40 years. I understand from some comments made by the Minister at a committee meeting that the matter has not yet been finalised. I seek clarification on the issue.
