Armed Forces Pension Reform: McCloud Remedy

The Ministry of Defence is implementing the McCloud remedy to address historical pension discrimination affecting armed forces personnel who transferred between pension schemes. The remedy involves issuing Remediable Service Statements and reforming the armed forces covenant through new legislation including the Armed Forces Charter Bill and War Pension Scheme reforms. The programme is currently active with a significant backlog of statements requiring clearance.
