Retiring Member Pack introduced for all members retiring from 01/04/2010

If you are an active member of the Nottinghamshire Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) and you are retiring on or after 01/04/2010, for one of the following reasons:

• voluntarily from age 60
• normal retirement at age 65, or thereafter

then you will be provided with the retiring members pack by your line manager.

However, if you are retiring with effect from 01/04/2010 on one of the following grounds of early retirement:

• ill Health Retirement
• redundancy
• efficiency
• voluntary with employer's consent
• flexible retirement with employer's consent

then your employer's Human Resources section will provide you with the retiring members pack.

The retiring pack consists of a guide and an application form, which will need to be completed and sent to the Pensions Office to apply for your retirement benefits.
