UK Government Prepares Imminent Response on Waspi Pension Compensation

Prime Minister Keir Starmer indicates a forthcoming statement on compensation for women affected by state pension age changes.

Approximately 3 million women born in the 1950s are awaiting compensation after inadequate notice of state pension age changes.
The Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman recommended compensation between £1,000 and £2,950 per affected individual.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer has faced criticism for delaying action on the Ombudsman report published nine months ago.
Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall is expected to announce the government's response soon.
The Waspi campaign claims the pension oversight has resulted in significant financial losses for many women.
