Kevan has signed EDM 63 calling on the Government to provide pension certainty for women impacted by unfair changes to the State Pension Age. The EDM recognises the need for a non-means tested bridging pension and calls on the Government to bring forward transitional arrangements.

The full text of EDM reads:

“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.”
