Pot for pensioners 'could be empty by 2070'

A pot of money set aside to care for Jersey pensioners could be empty by 2070 if strict population controls are introduced, an independent report has claimed.
It suggests social security contributions might have to increase to make up the difference.
Currently, if you work in Jersey, 6% of your salary goes towards social security and your employers pay an additional 6.5%.
Most of the money goes into the social security fund - which is there to support pensioners and islanders unable to work due to illness or injury.
Jersey has an ageing population, so it's expected this fund is going to be needed more and more.
The UK government's auditors have looked at Jersey's social security fund, and how it might remain sustainable over the next 60 years.
Their message is clear - either everyone in Jersey starts paying more in social security or the population is allowed to continue growing at a rate of at least 700 people a year.
According to the report, if contributions remain at their current rate, by 2027 islanders will be taking more money out of the pot than putting in.
The findings will be used to inform Jersey's government plan - due to be published this summer
Officers would like to speak to a white teenager about 14 to 15 years old, wearing a black hooded jumper and camouflage style trousers in connection with the blaze.
No-one was injured in the fire on Thursday.

BBC Radio Jersey
Controversial rules limiting the amount of time you can park at Le Port, in St Ouen's Bay, Jersey, have been introduced.
The minister in charge has agreed to introduce a 12-hour limit, following complaints about noise, litter and inconsiderate behaviour from people camping overnight in the area.
The move has been opposed by Senator Steve Pallett - who's described it as ill thought out and unnecessary.
He'll ask the States to reverse the decision in a vote next month.
