Hi Emma, yes, once you reach State Pension age whilst on PIP, your current award switches to an "indefinite" award with "light touch" reviews.
A statement from a Labour MP has been posted on this forum, which said State Pensioners are not affected by the proposed changes. I think further proof would be nice though.
In addition, you would not be affected by the changes if they go through until your next review if already a PIP claimant.
Hope this helps you.
