answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/04/2014 answer text <p><strong>Alongside the pensions flexibility announced at Budget, the government announced a new guarantee that everyone with a defined contribution pension will be offered free and impartial face to face guidance on their financial choices in retirement when they retire. </strong><strong>The Government is consulting on how best to deliver this guidance as part of its consultation</strong><strong>, ‘Flexibility and Choice in Pensions'.</strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>The guidance will be designed to help consumers navigate the options available and is not intended to replace the services of professional financial advice. The government expects that many consumers will go on to seek further advice and</strong><strong> will ensure that the guidance equips consumers to choose the advisory service that suits their needs.</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>The government has asked the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to coordinate the development of robust standards for this guidance and a framework for monitoring compliance.</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>Professional financial advice is regulated by the FCA. The FCA's statutory objectives and regulatory powers are geared to protect consumers. The FCA has committed to taking a proactive and interventionist approach to retail conduct regulation.</strong></p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Deighton question first answered 14/04/2014 12:00:00 answering member 4262 label Biography information for Lord Deighton

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/04/2014 answer text <p><strong>The impact will depend on how people choose to use their pension savings, which is difficult to predict.</strong><strong> The Government expects any impact to be small in the context of the other pension measures announced in this Parliament – including State Pension age changes, the introduction of the single tier pension and public service pension reform – which are projected to save around £17 billion in 2030 in today's terms. The estimated net fiscal impact of pension changes announced in this Parliament can be found in Chart 1.12 of the Red Book here: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/293759/37630_Budget_2014_Web_Accessible.pdf</strong></p> answering member printed Lord Deighton question first answered 14/04/2014 12:00:00 answering member 4262 label Biography information for Lord Deighton attachment 1 file name 3467LW.pdf title projected tax ipacts of pension arrangements
