Under the Christmas tree in the chancellor's office, a nice pension package? This is not going to happen. Because of considerable disagreements with the SPD, the chancellor seems to want to bring the reform to parliament in 2027.
New arrangements for retirement insurance should enter into force on 1 January 2027. According to a report, the Chancellor has passed the goal. The CDU sees itself as "difficult".
Friedrich Merz no longer expects a resolution of the pension reform this year. He had actually announced it full-bodiedly, but the bill from the house of Bärbel Bas is waiting for him.
According to Friedrich Merz's new plans, the pension reform is to be decided by the Bundestag only in the spring. The start on 1 January 2027 is therefore at risk.
According to a report, the decision originally planned for December in the Bundestag is being postponed for months. Chancellor Merz now expects the pension package to be in the "spring".
Federal Chancellor Merz no longer assumes that the planned pension reform will be decided by the Bundestag as planned by the end of the year. As the "Bild" newspaper reports on the basis of chancellor districts, the CDU chairman only strives until then for the adoption in the cabinet. The reform should actually enter into force on 1 January.
