Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps her Department is taking to support people waiting for correct Remediable Service Statement and payment.
Answered by Torsten Bell - Parliamentary Secretary (HM Treasury)
Scheme managers of the individual public service pension schemes are responsible for ensuring the effective delivery of the McCloud remedy and for supporting their scheme’s members. I have written to scheme managers to remind them of their responsibilities to implement the remedy as quickly as possible and ensure that scheme members and the Pensions Regulator are kept informed of progress and plans.
