Management will be delaying talks until the Global recession is a reality in everyones minds, making a stronger case for another pension holiday
Of this I have no doubt..........watch this space
they had a contribution holiday because there was a substantial surplus. as a final salary pension scheme, it is their right to do what they wish with the surplus.
There isn't that surplus now, so there is no option for them to take a contribution holiday. It would be financial suicide - given the already escalating cost of provision.
