<p>The 2017 Review of Automatic Enrolment (AE) sets out our ambition to reduce the
qualifying age for AE below 22, so that younger workers can begin to save as soon
as they join the labour market.</p><p> </p><p>The government supported the Pensions
(Extension of Automatic Enrolment) Act 2023 which gives us the legislative powers
to implement this expansion of AE subject to consultation with employers and workers.
Government is committed to make this change in the mid-2020s.</p><p> </p><p>In the
meantime, the current AE framework allows workers who are not automatic enrolled to
opt-in to a workplace pension, including those below age 22, and many employers already
choose to enrol those workers.</p>
