Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if his Department will publish a report on the outcome of the pension credit public awareness campaign.
The outcome of the Pension Credit awareness campaign will be reported in the Department’s Annual Report and Accounts. Our extensive communications campaign has been running since April 2022 and so far, there is a strong indication that it is having a positive effect. The number of Pension Credit applications is up by around 75% in the 12 months to May compared to the same period last year.
