Irish public sector pensions
The Irish government has said it will introduce legislation providing for a common pension scheme for all public service employees in the next few weeks. The minimum retirement age will be 66 and the maximum will be 70 and pensions will be based on career-average earnings rather than final salaries. Making changes to public service pensions was part of Ireland’s bailout package.
