My understanding of the situation is even if there is a No vote the proposals will still be implemented.

By law the the members of a pension scheme have to be consultation before any changes can go ahead. This is that consultation.

The Deed of Trust can not stop NATS closing the scheme to new members.

The Deed of Trust can not stop NATS from deciding what remuneration is and what remuneration is not pensionable.

The question is what are we as a workforce going to do once the changes are implemented.

The only power any workers have over their owners is the power to dent profits.

Any industrial action without the Unions is illegal and a disciplinary matter so any industrial action will have to involve the Unions and lets face it they are more aligned to Management than Us now.

So that only leaves non co-operation by individuals.

How the hell did we get up this creek?
