The Pensions (Extension of Automatic Enrolment) (No. 2) Bill has passed the second reading in the House of Lords and will now go on to the committee stage.
The Bill looks to lower the age to 18 years old for automatic enrolment and abolish the Lower Earnings Level (LEL). Currently employees need to be between 22-SPA, earning over £10,00 per annum to be automatically enrolled.
