Heather Humphreys (Cavan-Monaghan, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I am working on the legislation and it is my intention to bring it to the House before the end of the year. I am aware of those who will become 66 years of age on 1 January and I want to make sure that they get their full entitlements when they reach that age in order that they will get their pensions. As I said, we are working on that at present.

In respect of the commission on pensions, I have been working with my officials and must bring a memo to Government on that particular matter. It will examine a number of issues. I have to agree that with my Government and Cabinet colleagues before I can give any further information.
