Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what meetings his Department has held with women born on or after 6 April 1950 who are affected by changes to the state pension age in the 1995 and 2011 Pension Acts to discuss proposals for a non-means-tested solution for all women.

This matter has been comprehensively debated on many occasions in Parliament. The Government will not be making changes to its policy on state pension age for women born in the 1950s, in respect of the 1995, 2007 and 2011 Pension Acts. DWP Ministers have met with a number of constituents who have been affected by changes to the State Pension age.

The Government does not intend to make further concessions in addition to those arrangements already made for women affected by the acceleration of increases in State Pension age that have already been made.
