HM Reevenue and International (HMRC) は,3か月にわたる年金税の過大評価を受けた個人に対して,4870万ポンドを支払っている. HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) in the UK has repaid £48.7 million to individuals overcharged on pension taxes over three months. これは2015年に年金自由が導入されて以来,総額約15億ポンドの50万件以上の請求が続いています. This follows a high number of claims since the Pension Freedoms were introduced in 2015, with over half a million claims totaling nearly £1.5 billion. 旧年金大臣のスティーブ・ウェブを含む批評家は,過剰な支払いを避けるために,よりシンプルな制度を要求しています. Critics, including former pensions minister Steve Webb, call for a simpler system to avoid overpayments.
