记者 乔·派克、理查德·惠勒 报道 财政大臣约翰·希利将在周三发布的首份预算案中，通过保护低收入退休人员免受所得税影响来兑现承诺。

预计全额统一标准的国家养老金将于4月起上调3.9%，增至每年13036.40英镑。若不做调整，这笔款项将超过12570英镑的个人免税额，从而需缴纳所得税。
The full, flat-rate state pension is expected to increase by 3.9% to £13,036.40 a year from April. This would take the payment above the £12,570 personal tax allowance and therefore be liable for income tax if no changes are made.
