Burnham Signals Triple Lock Reform Could Help Fund Social Care
Andy Burnham may propose changing the state pension triple lock to help fund a free National Care Service.
Burnham said the plan would not be introduced during the current Parliament.
Reforming the triple lock could mean pension increases track inflation rather than a higher measure based on inflation, earnings growth, or the current 2.5% minimum.
