Hello all
Parliament's Petitions Committee has been in touch - having seen our webchat with Mhairi Black about women's state pension ages - to ask whether gransnetters would like to have some input into a Westminster Hall debate about the issue.
This debate is as a result of a petition calling for the government to 'Make fair transitional state pension arrangements for 1950s women' getting the required number of signatures for a Parliament debate.
The Committee is after gransnetters' thoughts on the following questions; you can see links to the first Commons debate here (video) and here (transcript).
- What were the most important points in the first debate for you? What do you think should have been covered that was not?
- What points do you think a second debate should focus on?
- What questions would you ask the Minister following their response to the debate?
Your thoughts will be fed back to MPs taking part in the Westminster Hall debate.
Thanks
