Discussions with HM Treasury regarding the GMP increases that are currently in effect provided through Additional Pension not being provided under new single-tier pension model

The request was refused by Department for Work and Pensions.

Dear Department for Work and Pensions,

Can you please let me have copies of any correspondence you have between HM Treasury and yourselves regarding the GMP increases that are currently in effect provided through the "Additional Pension" not being paid after 5 April 2016 as the new single-tier model does not provide a facility for the GMP increases currently in effect provided through the Additional Pension.

Yours faithfully,

C. Thompson

Dear Department for Work and Pensions,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Department for Work and Pensions's handling of my FOI request 'Discussions with HM Treasury regarding the GMP increases that are currently in effect provided through Additional Pension not being provided under new single-tier pension model'.

I think they should be able to give the information as it is vital that the public know that the information they are being given is accurate and that important information is not being withheld because it embarrases the Government if it became known that people in public service are being given special privileges regarding cost of living increases on GMPs normally paid by DWP with the Additional State Pension.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/d...

Yours faithfully,

C. Thompson
