Teachers' Pension Scheme Transitional Protection Remedy

Closes 4 Jun 2023

Opened 27 Mar 2023

Overview

We're seeking views on the proposed changes to the Teachers’ Pension Scheme (TPS) regulations to remedy the discrimination identified when the scheme was reformed in 2015.

Why your views matter

Changes to the TPS rules are necessary to remedy the discrimination that was identified when the public service pension schemes were reformed in 2015. These regulations will result in all eligible members, with reformed scheme service, being retrospectively returned to the legacy scheme. All eligible members will then be offered a choice of benefits (legacy or reform) at retirement for the remedy period (1st April 2015 – 31st March 2022). 

The consultation seeks responses from those affected by the proposed regulations.
