<p>I refer the honourable gentlemen to the answer previously given in response to
Question 217138. The Independent Case Examiner closed all live complaints concerning
changes to women’s State Pension age when they became subject to legal proceedings,
as is required under its governance contract. In the event the legal proceedings fall
away or there is no determination on the matters which form the basis of this group
of complaints, the Independent Case Examiner could consider reopening the cases at
the request of the Department. The Department cannot evaluate the potential merits
of making such a request until the legal proceedings have been concluded.</p>
