Future Changes to State Second Pension

In the future, State Second Pension is scheduled to undergo yet more alterations, when the two top income bands, between the LET and UET and between the UET and UEL, merge to become one LET to UEL band with a ten percent S2P benefit rate. This is expected to take effect around 2010/2011. Around 2030 the government estimate that they will dispose of all the S2P earnings bands and S2P will become a flatrate weekly top-up to the basic State Pension.
