Complaint summary
Ms Benker has complained about the decision reached in 2012 not to award her an ill health pension as from 2007, when her employment was terminated.
Summary of the Ombudsman’s determination and reasons
The complaint should not be upheld against GMPF because it has no involvement in deciding as to whether or not Ms Benker meets the criteria for an ill health pension from the Scheme.
The complaint should be upheld against LCRC but only to the extent of non-financial injustice Ms Benker has suffered.
