Subject
Dr Atenstaedt’s complaint against NHS Pensions centres on the rise in cost of the Additional Pension (AP) amounts that he is purchasing.
The Deputy Pensions Ombudsman’s determination and short reasons
The complaint should not be upheld against NHS Pensions as, although they did give incorrect information to him, Dr Atenstaedt was in possession of the correct information before he made his decision to elect for AP. Further the changes made to contributions levels and index-linking of AP amounts were in line with the Scheme’s Regulations.
