Geraint Davies – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Work and Pensions

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Geraint Davies on 2016-02-01.

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if he will implement the provisions of the Pensions Act 2014 on removal of the cap to the Pension Protection Fund.

Justin Tomlinson

The Government is committed to the implementation of the PPF long service cap. Before the primary legislation can be brought into force, a number of changes need to be made to secondary legislation, so that it will operate as expected in all cases. Therefore we cannot, at this time, commit to a particular implementation date.
