State Pension underpayment review for over-80s and vulnerable people to be finished by next spring
07.07.2022 - 12:01 / dailyrecord.co.uk
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has confirmed it will publish an updated report into State Pension underpayments before Parliament stops for summer recess on July 21. The DWP is currently in the process of reviewing 405,000 cases as part of a LEAP exercise to identify underpayments, worth more than £1 billion in total, which were due to repeated human errors caused by complex rules and outdated IT systems.
Most of those affected are likely to be women.The previous release, published in March this year, showed that between January 2021 and February 2022 the checking process had identified 14,239 underpayments, worth a total of £94.3m.
When asked about progress at a recent Work and Pensions Committee hearing, the DWP said there are currently 500 people reviewing cases, and it aims to complete the exercise for people over the age of 80, the most vulnerable and those on category BL, by spring next year. DWP also plans to ramp up recruitment to 1,500 to complete the review by the end of December 2023.
Peter Schofield, Permanent Secretary at DWP, also told the Committee that as more reviews are completed, they have identified “additional cases”, however, he explained that this does not include divorced women.
He said: “The difference between divorced people is in all of those circumstances they need to alert us to a change of circumstance.
“The cases that we are looking at through the LEAP exercise are where we should have known and we should have got those right.”
He continued: “I did a sample exercise looking at divorce cases to see if I could see a widespread issue following some reports in the media. I just thought I would have a look at that, but I could not see anything that would suggest that there was anything
