Frozen British Pensions
Dear Department for Work and Pensions,
Can you please let me know:
a). How many staff are required to deal with Frozen British Pensions - those UK pensioners living in countries that are “frozen”?
b). How much has it cost the DWP year on year for the last five years to deal with Frozen British Pensions issues or questions?
c), If the UK were to unfreeze British State Pensions tomorrow, how much would the DWP save on an annual basis?
Yours faithfully,
Nigel Nelson

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 'Frozen British Pensions'.
I cannot believe that the DWP does not know the answers to my questions.
I would appreciate it if you can obtain answers to my questions…
