‘Please don’t go anywhere’: industry urges pensions minister to finish job

Industry Urges Pensions Minister to Complete Reforms

The pensions minister, Torsten Bell, has expressed his determination to finish reforming the UK's pensions system.

At the Pensions UK annual conference in Manchester, Bell thanked the industry, advisers, and policymakers for their support since he took office in January.

“I consider pensions a vocation and we must not frame them as a savings or tax-efficient investment product, risking a drift away from their true purpose.”

Bell emphasized that the government would not delay pension reforms, citing a long-standing consensus on the need for adequacy, consolidation, and better governance.
