state pension

Labour has made a final attempt to change the government's reforms of women's state pensions.

This week's Retirement Planner quick fire poll asks: Do you believe the DWP should accelerate the increase in State Pension Age to age 67?

The pensions minister this weekend showed he is no fool when it comes to political posturing.

Pensions minister Steve Webb has revealed more than six million people continued to pay National Insurance contributions (NICs) in 2008-09 despite having already qualified for a full state pension.

South African fraudsters have created fake life stories to apply for special state pensions offered to anti-Apartheid campaigners.

Pensions minister Steve Webb has promised that the goverment will create a transitional arrangement for women hit hardest by the rise in the state pension age (SPA).

Introducing a flat-rate state pension of around £140 per week will cut the number of pensioners living below the poverty line, the Pensions Policy Institute (PPI) said.

I advise on PMI schemes for small groups. With many members in their 60s, what do I need to consider as they approach retirement?

The Labour opposition should have come up with a solution to help women disproportionately hit by the rise in the state pension age (SPA) to 66 by 2020, pensions minister Steve Webb said.

The government has so far resisted offering amendments to the Pensions Bill which would ease the lot of half a million women who will have to wait up to an extra two years for their state pension under current plans.
