We wrote to affected pensioner members in early December 2023.
The Trustee Board, in conjunction with its advisers, has recently undertaken a thorough review to ensure that the benefits in payment match what they should be under the Scheme Rules.
In early December 2023, we wrote to affected pensioner members. Any changes will take effect from their December 2023 pension payment. If you have received a letter from us, please be assured that it is genuine. Should you have any questions, please refer to the Frequently Asked Questions section provided in your letter.
If you are receiving a pension from the Scheme and have not received a letter, then you have not been impacted by the review and your pension will continue as normal.
Please contact the Pensions Office if you need additional help. Unfortunately, we cannot assist you on any tax or interest queries.
We expect the coming weeks to be very busy and it may therefore take longer than usual for us to respond to you. Your patience is appreciated. The Pensions Office will be closed for the Christmas period from Thursday 21 December 2023 to Tuesday 2 January 2024.
