Paradise Golf and Beach Resort
Asked by: John Milne (Liberal Democrat - Horsham) Friday 17th January 2025 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether he has had recent discussions with his Moroccan counterpart on the potential merits of a compensation scheme for UK citizens that lost their investments in the Paradise Golf and Beach Resort project; and whether he has taken other steps to help ensure adequate (a) financial and (b) other compensation for those affected. Answered by Hamish Falconer - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office remains committed to helping all British investors affected by the failure of the Paradise Golf & Beach Resort (PGBR) development and will continue in its efforts to work with the Moroccan authorities to help them receive the compensation to which they are entitled. His Majesty's Ambassador to Rabat continues to seek opportunities to raise PGBR with his counterparts and relevant stakeholders in Morocco to encourage a satisfactory resolution to this longstanding issue. FCDO officials in London continue to raise the issue with their counterparts in the Embassy of the Kingdom of Morocco. |

Pensions: Advisory Services
Asked by: John Milne (Liberal Democrat - Horsham) Monday 13th January 2025 Question to the Department for Work and Pensions: To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what proportion of defined contribution pensions were accessed after a Pension Wise guidance appointment in each of the last five years. Answered by Emma Reynolds - Economic Secretary (HM Treasury) The information is not available. There are two sources which provide relevant data in relation to the request. The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) publish the number accessing a pension pot in the contract-based market (from 2015/16 to 2023/24) and whether this was accessed following financial advice, a Pension Wise appointment (and no financial advice), or no financial advice or guidance: Retirement income market data 2023/24 | FCA.
The Money and Pension Service (MaPS) have previously published survey data on outcomes of Pension Wise appointments. A copy has been attached (see figure 12). |

Pensions
Asked by: John Milne (Liberal Democrat - Horsham) Monday 13th January 2025 Question to the Department for Work and Pensions: To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, with reference to her Department's guidance entitled Pension freedoms and DWP benefits, published on 27 March 2015, what assessment she has made of the impact of that policy on defined contribution pension savers. Answered by Emma Reynolds - Economic Secretary (HM Treasury) The Government is committed to enabling savers to achieve security in retirement. We’ve announced as part of the King’s Speech that the Pensions Bill will include measures to give savers the benefit of guided retirement products, with a retirement income; this will change the experience of Defined Contribution savers as our approach would provide a secure income over retirement as a default, unless the member chooses something different.
We have also committed to assess adequacy for future savers as part of the second phase of the pensions review. We closely monitor the decumulation decisions of Defined Contribution savers. This has included research on retirement planning and decumulation decisions, such as Planning and Preparing for Later Life and analysis of Pensions Freedoms.

23 Jan 2025
Get Britain Working – Reforming Jobcentres Work and Pensions Committee (Select) Submit Evidence (by 3 Mar 2025) The Work and Pension Committee is conducting an inquiry into jobcentres, the first in a series of inquiries in response to the Government’s Get Britain Working White Paper. The Government has set itself a target of achieving 80% employment and is planning “the biggest reforms to employment support for a generation.” As part of these reforms, it plans to reform jobcentres, which it says are too focused on monitoring benefit compliance. The Government plans to create a new jobs and careers service, with a stronger focus on building skills and careers. In this inquiry, the Committee will scrutinise: the purpose of Jobcentre Plus, experiences of jobcentre services, how well jobcentres work with others and plans for a new jobs and careers service. Read the call for evidence for more detail about the inquiry. |
