Hi, my elderly neighbour's husband is due to be released on licence in a few weeks. She is worried about finances and wonders if he will be able to get state pension. I know they can on release after serving their full sentence but I don't know about coming out on licence.
He is of pension age. Does anyone know the rules around this?
