Retirement age could soon increase after a review of the state pension rules is published later this year.
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) said no decision has been taken on changes to the state pension age. The Government recently confirmed the triple lock will be used to uprate the state pension next year.
The triple lock guarantees state pensions increase by September's inflation figure, wages or 2.5%, whichever is higher. The guarantee means retirees are heading for a 10.1% increase in the state pension from next April.
