Local Government Pension Scheme

Early day motion 1044, tabled 20 October 2020 by John McDonnell (Labour). Signed by 28 members.

That this House notes with concern that with the prospect of potentially significant further cuts in jobs in local government, the Government is seeking to drive through plans to cut the pension or severance payments to public sector members of the Local Government Pension Scheme aged 55 and above; and supports those trade unionists campaigning both to expose the implications of the Government’s plans and to oppose their imposition.

Signatures by party: Labour 20, Independent 2, Plaid Cymru 2, DUP 1, Green 1, Labour/Co-operative 1, Scottish National Party 1.
