Ombudsman’s Determination

Outcome

I do not uphold Mr T’s complaint and no further action is required by HSC.

My reasons for reaching this decision are explained in more detail below.

Complaint summary

Mr T is unhappy because HSC has refused to grant him Mental Health Officer (MHO) status for the period 1984 – 1993. The effect of this is that he has not accrued sufficient pensionable service as an MHO in order to retire early without a reduction to his pension benefits.
