We understand that the changes will apply to members who:
- were in service on or before 31 March 2012
- have service after 31 March 2014, and
- do not have a disqualifying break. A disqualifying break is a period of more than five years when you were not a member of a public service pension scheme.
If you left the LGPS before 1 April 2014, you built up benefits in the final salary scheme only. These changes will not affect your pension.
