UK Parliament urged to intervene as PHSO finds DWP failed to inform 1950s-born women about state pension age changes, resulting in maladministration; DWP refuses compensation.
UK Parliament urged to intervene over state pension compensation; Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman (PHSO) found that the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) failed to adequately inform women born in the 1950s about changes to the state pension age, resulting in maladministration. The PHSO calls for compensation for affected women, with the ombudsman suggesting a range of £1,000 to £2,950 per individual. The DWP has so far refused to compensate those affected.
