The government says lowering the state pension age is not fair or affordable for taxpayers.
Until 2010, the state pension age was 60 for women and 65 for men, but qualifying ages were brought in line for everyone by 2018 and have been rising since.
Campaigners say the coronavirus pandemic has put a renewed focus on intergenerational fairness, with many young people losing their jobs and struggling to find work. And they want older people to be allowed to retire earlier, to free up employment for younger workers. It would also make the benefit unsustainable in the long term, the department argues in its response to the petition.
