Armed Forces: Workplace Pensions
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment he has made of the potential merits of introducing a rolling automatic pension calculation for former armed forces personnel who have received an Early Departure Payment.
Answered by Louise Sandher-Jones
There are no plans to introduce a rolling automatic calculation. However, former Armed Forces personnel can annually request a free forecast at any time by completing a Form 14, available on Gov.uk at the following link:
