Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, pursuant to the Answer of 13 October 2017 to Question 105738, what the age of the oldest person receiving the UK state pension is in each country outside the UK.

The Department is unable to provide the information. Where a 100% data extract has been used for Official Statistics, we use statistical disclosure techniques to help ensure confidentiality is maintained and are therefore unable to provide the level of detail asked for without breaking this confidentiality.

Data is potentially disclosive if, despite the removal of obvious identifiers, characteristics of this dataset in isolation or in conjunction with other datasets might lead to identification of the individual to whom a record belongs.
