OCCUPATIONAL PENSIONS AND JUDICIAL REVIEW

That this House notes the High Court judgement that the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions was wrong to reject the Parliamentary Ombudsman's findings of maladministration in her report on occupational pensions; welcomes the Government's intention to review the Financial Assistance Scheme in light of the European Court of Justice judgement; and urges the Government to move quickly to achieve an all party consensus around the provision of a fair and sustainable level of support to those who have lost all or part of their pension.
