As you know, ensuring members data is as accurate and complete as possible is vital to ensuring the successful administration of the Scheme.

Service and salary information provided via Monthly Data Collection (MDC) is used to produce Benefit Statements for your staff as well as allowing us to correctly calculate pension benefits.

In order to ensure historical service and salary information is complete, we’re currently looking into a historic data cleanse exercise.

Although the full details are yet to be confirmed, we’re looking at providing you with information relating to service and salary gaps for your members from April 2014 (the date MDC was first introduced).

The project is currently in its early stages, but further updates will be issued shortly.
