Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they intend to publish worked examples showing how increases resulting from inflation or the 2.5 per cent minimum increase will be taken into account when calculating subsequent earnings-related increases under their proposed State Pension uprating arrangements.

The Triple Lock reform factsheet was published on 6th October 2026 and provides further information on how the adjusted Triple Lock will operate.

From April 2030, the basic and new State Pensions will be uprated by the highest of 2.5%, annual CPI inflation, or the increase needed to return or maintain the State Pension at its target share of average earnings reached in 2029/30.
