Written question asked by Luke Evans (Conservative) on Tuesday, 8 September 2026, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Thursday, 10 September 2026. It was answered by Calvin Bailey (Labour) on Tuesday, 15 September 2026 on behalf of the Ministry of Defence.
Veterans: Workplace Pensions
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to WPQ 21894 answered on 7 September 2026 about Veterans Workplace Pensions, what the date is of the CEV requests being processed by his Department.
- Answer
-
The Ministry of Defence is currently processing Cash Equivalent Value (CEV) requests received in April 2026. For members with more complex circumstances, and for pensioner Remedy cases where implementation of the guidance is still being finalised, the request date being processed may be earlier than April 2026.
The legislative deadline for all schemes is that CEVs should be provided to members within three months of the request. We are aware this is being exceeded at present in some cases. Some cases are currently taking longer due to the impact of 2015 Pension Remedy and implementation of revised actuarial factors.
