Currently, there is both a total contribution system and an averaging system in place for calculating pensions. The averaging system was to be abolished. Is the Minister going ahead with abolishing the averaging system, which in many cases is more favourable than the new system she introduced? On what date will that happen and when will the contributory pension age increase from 66 to 67? People deserve to know.
