Christmas Bonus (Specified Sum) Order 2008

I thank the noble Lord for giving way. While we are on that point, can he give us the latest estimate of the number of pensioners who are not claiming the pension credit to which they would be entitled? I believe that the latest figure I saw was 1.8 million. Can he update us on that?
