We need to reform public sector pensions - Webb

12 Mar 2010

Commenting on today's [Friday] NAO report on public sector pensions, Liberal Democrat Shadow Work and Pensions Secretary, Steve Webb said:

"This report shows ministers have failed to grasp the need to reform public sector pensions.

"The Government must be aware of the risks it is taking by not planning for changes in the size of the public sector.

"We need a new Turner Commission to propose a sustainable, long-term solution that is fair both to workers and taxpayers."
