THe government agreed to report back by the 27th September with a plan encompassing all the state pension schemes.
However there is the suggestion that the government is preoccupied with something else at the moment and will request an extension until after 31st October.0 -

Would be nice if they stopped taking that 2% they have been overcharging us in contributions for the last 4 years in the meantime...Mortgage free!
Debt free!

Would be good news for my wife who is planning on retiring at 60. She has some 1995 section pension built up that would not be reduced, but everything in the 2015 section pension would be reduced for taking the pension 7 years early. If this is the case she could take all her pension without reduction at 600 -
If this is age discrimination, why would it only apply to public sector schemes. Surely the same could be said for private sector schemes that have been changed in a similar way. I, for example am in the USS and exactly the same happened to our pensions.0

The principal does. However the results of the court-case only apply to the Government run schemes as it was the Government not, in your case, the Universities who was/were taken to court0 -
So are there likely to be challenges to private schemes which have done the same using this as a precedent. I don't think that would necessarily be a good thing as it could potentially bankrupt schemes that don't have the backing of the UK government (taxpayer)0

Does this in any way affect me, as a person who joined the Civil Service pension scheme (alpha) after April 2015?0
