answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/10/2020 answer text <p>In 2018-19, the Government received £142.4m as its share of surplus and £475m from the Investment Reserve. In each of 2019-20 and 2020-21, the Government received £142.4m as its share of surplus. The presence of the Guarantee has given the Trustees the freedom to invest in a way that targets surpluses and, as a consequence, bonuses to members. Bonuses paid to date mean that the typical member’s pension today is around 33% higher in real terms than it would otherwise have been.</p> answering member constituency Spelthorne answering member printed Kwasi Kwarteng question first answered 15/10/2020 16:15:50 answering member 4134 label Biography information for Kwasi Kwarteng

This is in return for the provision of the guarantee that ensures pensions are paid.
