Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether she plans to reintroduce the pension triple-lock for the 2023-24 financial year.
The Government is committed to implementing the Triple Lock in the usual way for the remainder of the Parliament. The decision to up-rate State Pensions in line with the Consumer Price Index, for 2022/23, is a one-year response to exceptional circumstances.
