Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask Her Majesty's Government why reciprocal agreements on state pensions are in place for some but not all of the British Overseas Territories; and when they plan to have agreements in place for all.
The UK has reciprocal social security agreements covering state pensions with two British Overseas Territories – Bermuda and Gibraltar.
The distribution of existing agreements with British Overseas Territories were based on a number of factors considered at the time those agreements were concluded.
