Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what data his Department holds on the distribution of contributions to defined-contribution pension schemes for each (a) income level and (b) age.

There are no breakdowns available by income level either for DC personal pensions or for DC workplace pensions.

There is also no breakdown available by age for DC personal pensions, but data on the distribution of employee contribution rates to workplace DC schemes, by age, can be found within Reference Table 5.1 of the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (ASHE) 2014 publication available here: http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/publications/re-reference-tables.html?edition=tcm%3A77-387081
