The wait goes on
WASPI campaigners have said they will 'refuse to passively wait for an ombudsman decision' affecting the future of women affected by the pension age hike.
WASPI successfully argued the original report had not properly considered the full impact on affected women. Recent research found that 61 per cent of 8,000 women surveyed experienced a range of lost employment opportunities, saying they had retired or reduced their working hours, expecting to retire at 60.More than 50 cross-party MPs recently wrote to the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman demanding a fair and prompt investigation.
WASPI said: "At each stage we will be pressing the Ombudsman not only to complete his investigation in a way that is as rapid as possible but also thorough and fair. We will also be raising concerns about this with MPs, particularly those who sit on the Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee which oversees the Ombudsman’s work.
