Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what direct notifications pensioners will receive of changes to the pension age.

DWP has written to individuals affected by State Pension age change and due to reach State Pension age by 2026, using the address details recorded by HMRC at the time.

DWP also makes information on State Pension age changes and who they affect available on Gov.uk, including the option to calculate State Pension age.

We have committed to completing a review of the State Pension age by May 2017. This is an important opportunity to ensure that State Pension age changes are fully considered by Government and well understood by those they affect.
