Petition State Pension - Annual uprating

More details

The annual increase to the State Pension and other pensions and benefits should be based on an average inflation figure for the whole of the previous year; not just the figure for the previous September. This would then include any month where inflation was unusually high or low and provide a much fairer and accurate indication of the inflationary trend. The figure for September does not necessarily reflect the figure for the whole year.
