The Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman report follows a campaign from women who saw their retirement age aligned with that of men

A report looking into how raising the age when women retire has impacted them is to be published on Thursday.

The age when both men and women can get their pension is going to go up again from 66 to 67 between 2026 and 2028. The issue relates to the generation of women born in the 1950s who were affected when the state pension age was pushed back when it increased from 60 to 65, in 2018, to make it the same as for men.

He said in Parliament: "The lack of resolution for the 3.8 million WASPI women is a disgrace. Those 3.8 million women were given the bombshell that their state pension age was going to increase from 60 to 66 just as they were about to retire and it was too late to do any proper financial planning."
