State Pension payments are issued by the government to Britons of an eligible age, who have a certain number of National Insurance contributions. It is important to note, however, some will receive less than the full new state pension sum if they were contracted out before April 6, 2016. Alternatively, there are other pension arrangements such as a workplace pension or private arrangement which can help people save for their retirement.
