ASW Sheerness (Pension Scheme)

Answer

None as yet, although the first members of the ASW Cardiff scheme started to receive payments before Christmas. The ASW Sheerness scheme has not yet completed wind-up, and the scheme trustees have confirmed that they have no members aged 65 and over who would qualify for initial payments. My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State is looking forward to meeting my hon. Friend and former ASW employees later this week.
