Local Government Pensions

EDM number 1816 in 2005-06, proposed by Alan Meale on 15/03/2006.

That this House is aware that the Government is bringing forward new arrangements to alter the minimum retirement age and early retirement provision in the Local Government Pension Scheme which will alter the present position, especially in relation to its 85 year rule criteria and other established early retirement formulae; believes such an approach to be misguided; and calls upon the Government not to follow such a path, but to guarantee previously negotiated schemes with all public sector workers affected.

This motion has been signed by a total of 32 MPs.
