Rather than pension recipients alone, people in receipt of invalidity pensions or the disability allowance also need to be considered. I hope that the report will do so. That younger widows and widowers who are dependent on pensions do not qualify for a number of payments should be considered as well. In truth, I am referring as a whole to households that are solely dependent on social welfare and at risk of poverty, including fuel poverty.
