Every two years, we match our pensioner payroll with secure national computer systems to ensure the fund makes payments only to eligible pensioners.

National fraud initiative - fair processing notice

Cabinet Office (CO) currently requires us to participate in its anti-fraud initiative. For this initiative, we provide details of pensioners so that CO can compare those details with information from other public bodies.

These checks ensure, for example, that:

  • no pensions are being paid to people who have died or are no longer entitled
  • pension income is being declared in housing benefit applications
