I looked at the reference you gave for NI credits for spouses of servicemen. Unfortunately, this only applies after 2010. My wife followed me around the World on RAF postings for much of the past 30 years, I got her up to 30 years NI by buying some extra years. Now retrospectively, she has gone from being entitled to a full basic pension to having only 30/35ths of a pension when she reaches state pension age soon after 2017.
I have re-read the White paper and wondered if you can spread any more light on the "rebate derived amount" that they plan to reduce the entitlement of contracted out employees like service personnel?
I feel an angry e-mail to my MP coming on!!!
