<p>The Government is committed to public service pensions which are fair to workers
and fair to other taxpayers. The tapered annual allowance is focussed on the highest
earning pension savers, to ensure that the tax relief they receive is not disproportionate
to that of other savers. The Government is aware of specific concerns raised by some
high-earning NHS doctors impacted by annual allowance tax charges. As the Chancellor
said at the Treasury Select Committee, we are currently in discussions with the Department
of Health and Social Care about providing additional pension flexibility for NHS doctors
affected by annual allowance tax charges.</p>
