	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/03/2014 answer text <p /> <p /> <p>A persons entitlement to the contributory state pension is dependent on the National Insurance contributions they have paid or had credited to them over their working life (from the age of 16 upto the year before they reach State Pension age) which builds up Qualifying Years. This will also be the case for the new single tier pension, but with a requirement to have a minimum number of qualifying years.</p><p>A person who has served a long prison sentence during their working life is likely to have a below average entitlement to contributory state pension. However, Pension Credit is available where the person's (and partner's) income from all sources is inadequate.</p> answering member constituency Thornbury and Yate answering member printed Steve Webb question first answered 17/03/2014 12:00:00 answering member 220 label Biography information for Steve Webb
