The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will review the tapered annual allowance threshold for NHS pensions.

Answered by Karin Smyth

Tax policy is a matter for my Rt Hon. Friend, the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The tapered annual allowance threshold applies universally and restricts the amount of tax-free pension saving available to the wealthiest in society.
