DWP urged to do the ‘right thing’ for WASPI women over State Pension age compensation
Two Scottish MPs have urged the UK Government not to make the same mistake with future State Pension age change communication that has been felt by millions of women born in the 1950s. Some 3.8 million women across Great Britain missed out on State Pension payments due to the change in retirement age from 60 to 65 between 2016 and 2018 and then to 66, for both men and women in October, 2020.
