At Prime Minister’s Question Times today Liz Truss confirmed that the triple lock on the state pension would remain in place.
In a response to a question from the SNP leader Ian Blackford, she said that both her and the new chancellor had agreed that this would remain. This means that pensioners will receive a record 10.1 per cent increase to their pensions in April.
Earlier Hunt had refused to confirm that the triple lock remained in place.
