Pensions consultation

20 July 2020

The Government has announced a consultation on its proposed remedy to the discrimination found when it launched the 2015 Career Average Revalued Earnings (CARE) Police Pension Scheme.

The consultation, which also involves other public service pension schemes, was launched on Thursday 16 July and will close on 11 October 2020.

The Police Federation of England and Wales (PFEW) is working with other UK staff associations to form a detailed response to the Government consultation.

“We are fully aware and acutely conscious of the financial importance of a fair remedy for all our members,” says a PFEW statement, “Our position has always been, and remains, that officers should be permitted to remain on the pension scheme they joined, if this is to their benefit.”

We will keep you informed as more information becomes available.
