Many examples to be found in searchable judgements databases on courts websites, patients opinions website....as for my experiences...how long have you got
but seriously cannot give details yet as litigation in progress and 81 public sector employees involved
So, as expected, no details at all to support an outstandingly generalised statement.0 -
The Office for Budgetary Responsibility published some interesting long-term projections.
The chart below shows projected expenditure in their central scenario:0 -

I would rather decisions were based on facts or projections rather than prejudice, rumour or preconcieved opinions personally.
Hang on i was told this was about affordability at first.0 -
So to put it another way the Public sector Pensions adequately reward a career.
Private Sector Pensions aren't as good simply due to the greed of the share holders or outright owners of whichever business we are discussing at the time.
In other word Private sector Workers need to grow a pair and fight for their own pensions as the Public Sector has done.
And if anybody is unable to see the connection between the government using the excuse of the current economic situation to hammer down hard fought for employment conditions, with the excess of money paid out to those that have no intention of every contributing to anything, ever.
Well, all I can say is no wonder you never passed the assessments to get into a Public Sector job, hence why you are so happy to have a pop now.
I worked in the private sector for years, so made the decision to get a job with decent T&C's.
Anybody is allowed to apply for PS jobs.
And there have been changes to our pensions recently with the new 2008 section.
And the NHS Pension as mentioned above has a decent surplus, mainly due to all those hard working public sector workers having the good manners to drop dead soon after retiring in fairly significant numbers.0 -

So, as expected no desire to search for self or proffer courtesy, get off my case and search a case, Court website databases hold thousands of decisions regards persons so and so v such an such public body, patientopinion web illustrates many aggrieved persons..0 -

Nope, you've posted a blatant generalisation. If, as you claim, there are cases out there then post a few links. Patientopinion web is likely to be entirely subjective.0 -
I think you will find when the time comes, that your final salary pension will give you a far greater return per pound contributed than your AVC ever will.[/QUOTE]
Yes probably, because of course I have paid into my pension for over 48 years, so that should be as I expect, whereas AVC's were only introduced recently as an option during the last reform which took away most of my lump sum entitlement which was originally part of the T&C of my contract with the government which to me made up for the low salary I accepted in the public sector.0 -

really? 81 pulic sector workers, out of how many in total? I wonder how this would compare to those out-side of the public sector?
I think you just scored a home goal there lol!:D0
