▤ Verbatim text from source document
The government has committed to provide further remedy to people employed as retained firefighters between 7 April 2000 and 5 April 2006, by giving them the opportunity to purchase their pre-July 2000 service and have this included in their pension entitlement.
To do this, we’re consulting on amendments to:
-
the Firefighters’ Pension Scheme (England) Order 2006
-
the Firemen’s Pension Scheme Order 1992
We’re seeking views on:
- the amendments
- whether they achieve the policy intention for all eligible people
