Work and Pensions Select Committee

The Work and Pensions Select Committee is a group of Members of Parliament (MPs) in the UK who oversee and scrutinize the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). Their role is to review government policies and actions related to welfare, employment support, and retirement pensions. They hold inquiries, examine proposed laws, and ask questions to ensure that welfare programs are effective, fair, and well-managed. Their work helps inform Parliament and promotes transparency and accountability within the welfare system, ultimately aiming to improve support for individuals and families across the country.
