Some of these pensioners are with suppliers with less than 250,000 customers but who have opted to participate in WHD voluntarily. We estimate that roughly 60,000 pension credit guarantee credit recipients who would be eligible under the scheme do not receive the rebate as a result of being with a non-participating supplier</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Devizes answering member printed Claire Perry question first answered 11/06/2018 14:15:57 answering member 3974 label Biography information for Claire Perry
