Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many staff in her Department are working on the State Pension underpayment correction exercise; and if she will recruit additional staff to work on that exercise.
DWP currently has 488 members of staff working on the State Pension Correction Exercise Team and we are planning to increase resources in this area of our business throughout 2022/23.
