Can I contribute 27.5 of my income to a pension even if my employer only allows me to contribute 10% through them to our work pension fund?

Kindly read our blog on the New Retirement Fund Tax Laws which explains that even if your employer only contributes less than 27.5% of your pension you can still separately contribute the rest.
