Provision of Pension Estimates

The Nottinghamshire Pensions Funds Office has implemented changes to the provision of voluntary retirement estimates to contributing members of the Local Government Pension Scheme.

In order to provide a more focused service for those members who are age 55 or over and are planning for their retirement, we are asking members who are under this age to use either:

• the information provided on their annual benefit statements

or,

• the on-line pension benefit calculator on the Pension Website to obtain pension benefit details.

If you require an estimate for one of the following reasons for retirement you should contact your employer:

• ill heath
• redundancy
• efficiency
• voluntary retirement with employer's consent
• flexible retirement with employer's consent.
