The Government plans to publish a public consultation soon on changes to address the discrimination caused by transitional protection arrangements within the 2015 reforms to the main public sector pension schemes, including the Teachers’ Pension Scheme. The usual consultation period is 12 weeks.

This will be your opportunity to provide feedback on the proposals, to address the discrimination identified in the Court of Appeal decision in the McCloud and Sargeant cases.

Remember the Government has confirmed that members’ pension entitlements are safe and that the changes it makes to remove the discrimination will be for all affected scheme members, not just those who have lodged claims.

Please make sure you check our website, or our social media pages for confirmation on the start date and a link to the consultation.
