Definition and caveats
National Insurance Contributions received in the financial year, covering Classes 1, 1A, 1B, 2, 3 and 4.
Doesn’t measure: What those contributions entitle anyone to. National Insurance is a tax on earnings; the state pension is paid from current spending, not from a fund built up by the payer.
