PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
Pension credit threshold (11 September 2024)
Motion Details
That this House notes that the current threshold of pension support to open the gate way of winter fuel allowance is too low; further notes the need to change the cliff-edge nature of the pension credit threshold; and calls upon the Government to capture the gateway support for those citizens with small occupational pensions that take them just above the threshold.
