The Work and Pensions Committee

The Work and Pensions Committee is a group of Members of Parliament (MPs) in the UK who scrutinize and oversee government policies related to welfare, social security, and pensions. They examine how well government programs support people in need, ensure proper funding and administration, and consider potential improvements. The committee holds inquiries, questions ministers, and reviews reports to ensure that policies are effective, fair, and financially responsible. Their work helps hold the government accountable and shape policies that impact millions of individuals relying on welfare and pension systems.
