What the inquiry looked at

“Government response Read the Government's response to the Pensions Freedom guidance and advice report Read the Pension Wise data published by the Government Committee report Report: Pensions freedom guidance and advice Report: Pensions freedom guidance and advice (PDF 412KB) The Work and Pensions Committee says in their report that the "freedom to choose" reforms to pensions introduced in April 2015 are insufficient: people must have the freedom to make a well-informed choice. Not to have the basis for a well-informed choice could lead to the next major pensions mis-selling scandal. The Committee therefore calls on the Government to act swiftly in response to its report.”
