Work and Pensions Committee

The Work and Pensions Committee is a group within the UK Parliament that reviews and scrutinizes the government's policies and programs related to welfare, social security, and pensions. Its role is to examine how effectively these services support people, hold the government to account, and suggest improvements. The committee gathers evidence from experts and the public, conducts inquiries, and produces reports to ensure that welfare systems are fair, efficient, and meet the needs of individuals and society.
