In a review of auto-enrolment
published on February 6, 2024, the Government has
confirmed that the auto-enrolment earnings trigger and qualified
earnings band will remain frozen for the 2024/25 tax year.
This means the parameters are as follows:
- The earnings trigger remains at £10,000 p.a.
- The lower limit of the qualifying earnings band remains at
£6,240 p.a.
- The upper limit of the qualifying earnings band remains at
£50,270 p.a.
Under the Pensions (Extension of Automatic Enrolment) Act 2023
there exists a power to remove the lower earnings limit under
secondary legislation. The DWP intends to consult on the
implementation of these changes but no firm date is given in the
review.
