Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation
Dail Éireann — 2020-11-12
============================================================

Claire Kerrane (SF), Roscommon-Galway

It will be seven weeks tomorrow until 1 January 2021 when, according to current legislation, the pension age is due to increase to 67 years. Promised legislation to defer the measure is nowhere to be seen. The membership of the pensions commission was established last week and as the Tánaiste is aware, issues have been raised by a number of organisations, particularly those which represent older people and women. When will legislation be introduced to defer the increase in the pension age to 67 years?
