- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty's Government what independent advice was made available to staff of NHS Trusts and Foundation Trusts who, in moving to employment by a wholly owned subsidiary of that Trust, opted to come out of the NHS Pension Scheme.
- Answer
-
Making available independent advice would be a matter for their employer to consider.
Any staff considering changes to their pay and pensions arrangements should be encouraged by their employer to take independent advice from an approved provider. The NHS Business Services Authority which administers the NHS Pension Scheme provides a range of information about the NHS Pension Scheme which could be used to help inform any independent advice.
