WASPI women fighting for compensation from the DWP over a change to state pension age have been given a lifeline
WASPI campaigners vying for compensation from the Department for Work and Pensions regarding a change in the state pension age have been given hope today as MPs set a deadline in the latest parliamentary development.
Today's gathering in Parliament witnessed a crucial debate centred on WASPI compensation, which could result in payments as high as £2,950 per affected woman by DWP. Former SNP Westminster leader Ian Blackford urged for compensation to be established prior to the House of Commons summer recess beginning on July 23.
Ross's MP Mr Blackford stated: "The DWP has to play a part in bringing forward proposals for a financial redress scheme to Parliament before the summer recess, and these proposals must be amendable.
