Extract

Mr A. A. S. Bryans, F.I.A. (introducing the book): On behalf of the authors, I am delighted to start this presentation of our book ‘100 Years of State Pension’. The book has taken us over two years to produce, with it finally arriving from the printers on 15 January 2009. This meeting is the launch of the book.

The agenda for the meeting is for me to give you a presentation about the book. Mr Salter will look at some of the themes of the book, and Mr Redman will conclude by setting the scene for the discussion based on our findings. It is then over to you. We look forward to a lively and interesting discussion. At the end, Mr Hewitt, on behalf of the authors, will answer any points raised in the discussion and Mr Ridsdale will close the discussion.
