210,000 UK pensioners, mainly women in their 60s and 70s, could be owed up to £5,000 in state pension back payments due to missing periods of Home Responsibilities Protection (HRP) affecting their National Insurance records. HRP was designed to protect parents and carers' state pension entitlement while they were out of work. Affected individuals should receive any back payments by the end of next year.
