Mr Gartland is of the opinion that he has been wrongly refused the early release of his deferred pension benefits on grounds of ill health with effect from May 2010.

The complaint should be upheld against the Council because the decision as to whether Mr Gartland met the requirements of Regulation 31 does not appear to have been taken by the Council.
