What is the state pension and how much is it increasing by?
Unlike a private pension, the state pension is a monthly payment made by the government to people who have reached the qualifying age and have paid enough national insurance contributions.
In November, the government confirmed that the state pension would go up by 10.1% - in line with September's Consumer Prices Index (CPI) measure of inflation.
From April 2023 payments will be:
£203.85 a week (up from £185.15) for the full, new flat-rate state pension (for those who reached state pension age after April 2016)
£156.20 a week (up from £141.85) for the full, old basic state pension (for those who reached state pension age before April 2016)
