Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether the statement in the Office of Budget Responsibility's report Fiscal risks and sustainability, published in July, that their policy position is that the "state pension age reaches 68 between 2037 and 2039 [...] rather than [...] between 2044 and 2046 as is currently legislated for" is correct.

The previous government committed to bring forward the rise in the State Pension age to 68 between 2037 and 2039.

The first chance this government will have to consider this issue will be via the State Pension age Review.
