Pensions/ Income Supports Sample Clauses

Pensions/ Income Supports. The Government and social partners agree to work together over a ten-year period to enhance pension provision and income supports including: • Future policy in this area will be considered in the context of the National Pensions Review, the outcome of the further work requested in relation to mandatory pensions, the publication of a Green Paper by the Government on pension policy and the views expressed by stakeholders including social partners. (See section 8.8 in Part II) • Enhancement of social welfare pensions over the period, having regard to available resources, building on the existing Government commitment for a rate of €200 per week for social welfare pensions to be achieved by 2007. • To increase the level of qualified adult allowance for pensioner spouses to the level of the state non-contributory pension. • To provide an adequate income in retirement which, as far as possible, is related to pre-retirement income. The target income level suggested in the National Pensions Policy Initiative (1998) was 50% of pre-retirement earnings from all sources, including social welfare supports, private and occupational pensions and savings and investments. • Enhance the level of occupational or private pension coverage. The National Pensions Policy Initiative also suggested that 70% of those at work who are 30 years and over needed an occupational or private pension to supplement the social welfare pension if they are to meet the income target. At present just under 59% have the necessary coverage. • The role and economic contribution of spouses working on the farm will be recognised within the social insurance system through improved information services on the social welfare implications of families working together. • Following the conclusions of a PPF Working Group on Administrative Individualisation facilities were introduced in October 2002 to allow new pension claimants to have the qualified adult portion of their pension paid direct to their spouse or partner. It is agreed to finalise, without delay, the current examination of the administrative and legal implications of enhancing these arrangements to provide for an increase in the number of personal payments being made through the direct payment of the qualified adult allowance.
