State pension ages

The downloadable tables provided here update and supersede those in the November 2010 article Pity the French?

They show the revised state pension ages for women under the Pensions Act 1995 and as revised for both men and women under the present government’s proposals.

The dates will not only affect the start date for receipt of the state retirement penion (if not deferred), but also delay the time at which the requirement to pay personal National Insurance contributions ceases.
