This consultation document sets out the background to the second, retrospective, part of the remedy and an explanation of legislative and policy changes required to implement it.
The Public Service Pensions and Judicial Offices Act (PSPJOA) 2022 provides an overarching framework to allow public service pension schemes to remedy the impact of unlawful age discrimination. That discrimination arose due to certain transitional arrangements put in place when public service pension schemes (including the firefighters schemes) were reformed between 2014 and 2016.The second phase of the remedy, the retrospective remedy, is to remedy the discrimination that had taken place between 1 April 2015 and 31 March 2022.
This consultation on the Firefighters Pension Scheme seeks responses from interested parties on the amendments to the regulations needed to enact the second phase of the remedy, as set out in the PSPJOA 2022.
