So, despite the original change being potentially illegal, in terms of discrimination, there will be no uplift to restore benefits as was to the level it would have been if I had not been potentially illegally discriminated against?That isnt what is stated via Hansard.

interestingly enough, the language differed somewhat between what we are being told and what has been legally agreed.

Also interesting to note that the FBU are additionally seeking damages for their members due to the impact of the previous illegal discrimination.

This is exactly why we need to receive more information from the pensions society. Despite the ruling, there is no information available to decide on a course of action. Standing by to get screwed over whilst other public sector areas have full union support to push for their membership doesn’t wash.
