Women Against State Pension Inequality

EDM number 63 in 2017-19, proposed by Grahame Morris on 27/06/2017.
Categorised under the topics of Equality, Pensions and Sex discrimination.

That this House believes it has a moral duty to ensure that there is a fair transition for women born on or after 6 April 1951 regarding their pensions; recognises the need for a non-means tested bridging pension that will secure the financial stability of those affected by the 1995 and 2011 Pension Acts and compensation for those at risk of losing in the region of £45,000, creating a fairer pension system for all; and calls on the Government to bring forward transitional arrangements to provide pension certainty for the women disproportionately affected by this system.

This motion has been signed by a total of 196 MPs.
