Point of info - difference between Autumn Statement/HM Treasury and DWP published Saving Credit thresholds.  Corrected in the Commons in oral statement on 6/12/11:

“Unfortunately, the precise thresholds, which were calculated by our Department and appear at paragraphs 1.143 and 2.24, were incorrect. I apologise to the House for this error, which I am now in a position to correct. The correct thresholds for savings credit from April 2012 will be £111.80 for single pensioners and £178.35 for couples.” (col. 164)
