Maggie has welcomed dramatic new help announced in the Budget for savers across the Midlands, helping those people who want to save for a home, save for their family or save for their retirement.
Commenting Maggie said: “The raft of innovative measures announced by the Chancellor in last week’s Budget will really help hardworking people across the Midlands save more effectively whether for family, home or retirement.
“The freeing up of pensions is also welcome. Those retiring over the last few years have really suffered due to the low annuity rates. In fact, as Shadow Chancellor, George Osborne called for a relaxing of annuity rules as the recession hit.
“These new measures are a great indication that, under a Conservative-led Government, economic recovery is well under way and it is now time to reward those who save hard and work hard.”
