If a member hadn’t retired by 1 October 2023 and are affected by Transitional Protection, their affected service has been rolled back from the career average scheme to the final salary scheme and their Benefit Statement has been updated to reflect this.

Although their current statement only shows the final salary option for the remedy period (1 April 2015 -31 March 2022), they’ll be given both options when they make their retirement application.

We’re working hard to show both options and will keep you and them updated on when this has changed.

If you’ve any queries from your employees, please reassure them they’ll be able to choose the option that’s right for them. We apologise if this has caused you or them any confusion.
