An investigation into the controversial increase in women’s state pension age is gaining momentum.
Over the past 10 years, there has been several changes to the State Pension entitlement for women. Previously, women had to be 60 to claim their State Pension. However, it changed to 65 for women between 2010 and 2018.
It is now increasing in stages, alongside men, until it has reached 68. However, after it was increased from 65 to 66, the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman began an investigation.
