Thank you to everyone who contributed to our #intergenerationalfairness inquiry, and for letting us know what you think of the @LordsIFPReport. The time has come for us to say goodbye, and it’s now over to you to see if the Government take up our recommendations

[Intergenerational Fairness & Provision Committee @LordsIntergen]

Now we have published the #LordsIFPReport, what are the next steps you ask, well…

[Intergenerational Fairness & Provision Committee @LordsIntergen]

After the Government response, which will be due on 25 June, the #LordsIFPReport is debated in the @UKHouseofLords Chamber so we will make sure we let you know when to watch!

On 13 November @ionaflawrence of The Cares Family: @LiverpoolCares, @ManchesterCares, @SouthLDNCares, @NorthLDNCares, Rebecca Carter from @TheChallenge_UK and @DrLibbyDrury from @BirkbeckUoL discussed #community projects, #intergenerational contact and combatting age stereotypes

#communities and #communityaction are already tackling #intergenerationalunfairness and help to #connect #generations. #LordsIFPReport asks #localauthorities to #share the amazing work #communities are carrying out and provide information on how these services are being run

[Intergenerational Fairness & Provision Committee @LordsIntergen]

Local #communities need our support and the #LordsIFPReport wants the Government to guarantee funding for #community projects tackling #intergenerationalunfairness

[Intergenerational Fairness & Provision Committee @LordsIntergen]

As you can see from @TheFCA tweet below, they have published a paper on #Intergenerational Differences. The #LordsIFPReport asks that @TheFCA and the Government help to ensure a regulatory framework that encourages products that allow transfers between #generations

[Financial Conduct Authority @TheFCA]

Discussion Paper: We publish our paper on Intergenerational Differences to outline our understanding of the financial issues different generations face (DP19/2) https://t.co/0Fn2mFc2yX #fcaconsults

@DrAnnaDixon, CEO of @Ageing_Better, Brian Beach from @ILCUK and Professor Jacqueline O’Reilly from @SussexUBusiness highlighted #lifelonglearning, #longevity and the impact of #flexibleworking

[Intergenerational Fairness & Provision Committee @LordsIntergen]

Next we have #jobs, and the #LordsIFPReport has recognised and responded to the #instability faced by #youngergenerations in the #jobmarket

[Intergenerational Fairness & Provision Committee @LordsIntergen]

#LordsIFPReport is aware of the difficulties facing #oldergenerations, and #ageism is still a problem which we need to do more to address

[Money Observer @MoneyObserver]

Rise in pension incomes increases generational divide https://t.co/90yXkiee6R

Professor Sir John Hills from @CASE_LSE, Warwick Lightfoot from @Policy_Exchange, @carysroberts from @IPPR and @rorymeakin from @the_tpa talked to the Committee about changes to the #tax system they would like to see

[Intergenerational Fairness & Provision Committee @LordsIntergen]

Controversial as they may seem, the #LordsIFPReport #taxation recommendations are drawn from evidence. As we work longer it is not fair that #oldergenerations do not pay #nationalinsurance. We are asking the Government to review this, whilst still protecting the most #vulnerable

[Intergenerational Fairness & Provision Committee @LordsIntergen]

With difficulties evident in #housing, we believe #stampduty has a huge impact on #buyingproperty and #sellingproperty. The Government needs to review this to help #youngergenerations get on the #housingladder

[CarolLewis @CarolLewis101]

The Lord's think we need to reform council tax but what and how raises some important dilemmas - do we want a wealth/property tax? https://t.co/1ikLtMHRrK
