NHS Business Services Authority: Workplace Pensions
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what estimate his Department has made of the size of the backlog of Remedial Pensions Savings Statements currently outstanding by the NHS Business Services Authority.
Answered by Karin Smyth
The Department understands that approximately 135,000 NHS Pension Scheme members may require a remedial pension savings statement as part of their remedy to the discrimination identified by the McCloud judgment. More than 70,000 statements have been issued to date, with approximately another 60,000 individuals still to be contacted. The Department understands the NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) will issue the majority of these by the end of February 2025.
The Department became aware of a calculation error in 2023/24 Pension Savings Statements issued by NHSBSA on 6 January 2025, and is working with the NHSBSA to ensure this is quickly rectified.
