Pensions and Payroll Advice

Stephen Stewart is currently working through a large volume of requests and is prioritising requests from members retiring on health grounds and those who have additional queries on their records with SPPA.  We are therefore unable to provide estimates on a routine basis at present.

There is a lot of information on our website that will be of interest and this link will inform you of the choices you have with regards to your options.

I can advise that you are able to obtain your Annual Benefit Statement from SPPA by logging in or registering via this link If the details on your statement are correct you can then use the online calculators keep track of your pension | SPPA (pensions.gov.scot) to obtain pension figures and there is now a calculator there which addresses the 2015 Remedy.

Legislation for the remedy to the age discrimination issue is yet to be put in place and our website will be updated here with any further developments as they happen.  The administrative and legislative changes required should be in place after April 2024.

Please have a look at our FAQs:

We will continue to organise general sessions for members to answer questions on the McCloud remedy and retirement process including using the calculators.

Dates will be announced in the member bulletin.

I hope this helps and if you have any further questions please email Gillian Sutton: gsutton@eis.org.uk
