Will State Pension ever go completely?

As an aside, it’s funny or not talking about being overfunded when,
1. Thresholds haven’t changed in years

What thresholds?
If that includes the SFT then that has been increased and continues to be increased over the next few years.

@ClubMan it still hasn’t changed yet….no indication what the threshold could move to specifically.

I need to see the legislation before I am convinced

My mistake. The first €200K increase to €2.2M only kicks in next year.

no indication what the threshold could move to specifically.

What do you mean? It'll increase by €200K p.a. during 2026-2029 at which point it will be €2.8M.

Edit: oh - you mean that these are still just proposals? I thought that they were legislated for already via the Budget 2025 Finance Act?
