Government to rethink rejection of Waspi compensation
Published: 11/12/2025

The UK government will review its rejection of compensation for women affected by state pension age changes, potentially reconsidering financial payouts for 3.6 million women born in the 1950s. A survey from 2007 and undisclosed evidence have prompted this reevaluation, with no guarantee of payouts yet. Campaigners had called for payments of £10,000 each, but the government had previously rejected the recommendation for compensation.
