Winter Fuel Payments For Over 80 Year Olds (EDM407)

Winter Fuel Payments For Over 80 Year Olds

EDM number 407 in 2009-10, proposed by Bob Spink on 08/12/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Benefits policy and Energy.

That this House congratulates the Government on the provision of winter fuel payments for those aged 60 and over; further congratulates the Government on providing an increase in the payment for those aged 80 and over; notes with concern, however, that those people who turn 80 after the arbitrary date of 27 September are not eligible for the increased payments throughout the following winter; and therefore calls on the Government to change the qualifying date to ensure that those aged 80 on or before 31 December receive the increased payment in the year they are 80.

This motion has been signed by a total of 32 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
