Subject
Mrs Francis has complained that the Council, the managers of the Scheme, have failed to grant her Tier 1 ill health benefits in a timely manner.
The Pensions Ombudsman’s determination and short reasons
The complaint should be upheld against the Council because Mrs Francis could have been awarded her Tier 1 benefits considerably earlier than she was. The decision was improperly made twice in 2011.
