Soldiers and police officers may lose the right to retire early after the Treasury unveiled new plans to cut the cost of public sector pensions.
The proposed changes could see personnel in the armed forces having to work up to 15 years longer before receiving a pension.
Staff working in dangerous occupations such as the fire brigade or the armed forces are currently allowed to retire early, but the report suggests this could end by 2005.
Gordon Brown hopes to save as much as £4bn a year through the cutbacks.
