On 22 December 2020, three requests for Judicial Reviews of the Restriction of Public Sector Exit Payment Regulations 2020 were given permission to proceed. These requests contest the regulations on a number of grounds including their effect on the LGPS regulations. We expect the requests to be heard towards the end of March 2021.
We understand that these proceedings will prevent any direction by the Pensions Ombudsman on this matter until they are complete. We have asked for confirmation and will keep you updated with the latest information. Scheme members will still be able to bring claims against employers and administering authorities. We expect these claims to be stayed during the Judicial Review process.
