Waspi campaigners have sent an open letter to Commons Leader Penny Mourdant urging a vote by MPs on compensation for women affected by state pension changes
Last week, the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman took the “rare but necessary” decision to ask Parliament to intervene over complaints around how state pension changes were communicated. Waspi chairwoman Angela Madden said Parliament can only determine the compensation package if the Government makes time for the necessary debates and votes in the Commons
The report issued last week said: “We think this will provide the quickest route to remedy for those who have suffered injustice because of DWP’s maladministration.” Liberal Democrat work and pensions spokeswoman Wendy Chamberlain said: “The ombudsman report must now be enacted.”
