State Retirement Pensions: Women

Asked by Kim JohnsonLabourTreasuryTabled Answered 9 September 2024UIN 3185

The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to the report by the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman entitled Women’s State Pension age: our findings on injustice and associated issues, published on 21 March 2024, HC 638, what discussions she has had with the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions on that report.

Answered by Darren Jones

This is a serious report, requiring serious consideration. The Department for Work and Pensions is the lead department for this and need time to carefully review and consider it.

Once this work has been undertaken, the Government will set out their approach.
