Q&A - New State Pension

Q&A for LGPS members:

The New State Pension and National Insurance Changes

A new single tier, flat rate State Pension was introduced for people who reach State Pension age after 5 April 2016. The new State Pension should help people better understand what they will receive so that they can plan for their retirement. It replaced the existing basic and additional State Pension (for those who reach State Pension age after 5 April 2016).
