ARMED FORCES PENSION SCHEME RETROSPECTIVE BENEFITS

Early day motion 1652, tabled 17 July 2002 by Richard Younger-Ross (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 68 members.

That this House calls upon the Government to ensure that the current review of the Armed Forces Pension Scheme not only delivers benefits for future pensioners but also seeks to compensate for and draw a line under the unfairnesses arising from earlier pension scheme anomalies affecting former armed forces personnel and their dependents, who had made their unique commitment to this country.
