Lord Hutton says strikes will not make the necessity of pension reform 'go away'.

Lord Hutton's proposals for public-sector pensions will also cut the cost.

Lord Hutton recommended that public service pensions are based on career average earnings rather than your final salary.

Why did Lord Hutton believe that the current arrangements are unfair?

Lord Hutton said: "It is hard to imagine a better deal than this."

The government asked Lord Hutton to look into the pensions issue, and in his report he went further.

I do not necessarily accept the findings of Lord Hutton.

Lord Hutton launched a further inquiry into how the report came to be leaked.

The government has stuck closely to Lord Hutton's recommendations, he says.

Lord Hutton therefore allowed the appeal and held that their convictions should be quashed.
