Conservative — Aldridge-Brownhills

Speaking in the House of Commons on 19 March 2025

Debate

Winter Fuel Payment

Contribution

The Minister is being generous in giving way. I welcome the fact that the Government have done work to raise awareness of pension credit, just as we did when we were in government, but that does not really reach the group of hard-working pensioners who are too proud to come forward and apply for pension credit; it is just not what they would do. The £300 winter fuel allowance was a lifeline that they have now lost.
