HM Treasury is required to make Treasury Directions by the Public Service Pensions and Judicial Offices Act 2022. The Act provides a remedy for members of the public service pension schemes who were affected by discrimination that arose when reforms were introduced in 2015. Treasury Directions specify how powers under the Act are to be used by public service pension schemes in their scheme regulations. The Directions are needed to allow Secretaries of State and the Scottish and Welsh governments to proceed to consult stakeholders ahead of making scheme regulations by 1 October 2023 to remedy the discrimination in each public service pension scheme.
