The Government says the changes will provide greater flexibility and help prevent workers from being forced to retire before they can access the State pension. But what will the new legislation mean in practice for older workers, employers and retirement planning? To discuss this, Alan Morrisey was joined by Kay Murphy, former President of Active Retirement Ireland, and Maurice Harvey, former Chair of the Clare Older People's Council.
