Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what his planned timetable is for implementing the Pensions (Extension of Automatic Enrolment) Act 2023.

The government has supported the Pensions (Extension of Automatic Enrolment) (No. 2) Act since its introduction and is delighted to see it receive Royal Assent.

We are committed to expanding the benefits of Automatic Enrolment (AE) to younger people and helping all workers save more for their retirement, consistent with our 2017 AE Review proposals. We will consult on the detailed implementation at the earliest opportunity and report to Parliament before using the powers in the Act.
