Delays to pension reform will heighten rather than ease firms' anxiety about being ready for auto-enrolment, advisers claim.

The government's proposed cuts to public sector pensions will not go far enough to plug the schemes' funding gaps, Labour peer Lord Hutton has warned.

Administering auto-enrolment is an "absolute nightmare" for large employers, according to Marks & Spencer.

As up to two million public sector workers strike over pensions, thousands took to the streets in central London.

The government will give small firms extra time to prepare for auto-enrolment reforms, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has confirmed.

Chancellor George Osborne will delay auto-enrolment for small businesses as part of his strategy for growth, reports have claimed.
