It was answered by Paul Maynard (Conservative) on Wednesday, 7 February 2024 on behalf of the Department for Work and Pensions.


ASW: Workplace Pensions

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if he will make an assessment of the real-terms change as a result of inflation in the value of pension payments that were not index linked for Allied Steel and Wire pensioners under the FAS since 2007.

Answer

The information required to carry out such an assessment is not readily available and to obtain it would incur disproportionate costs. The Department has therefore made no such assessment and does not intend to do so, at this time.
