Information is not available for each of the last 10 years. Data collected for the police pension scheme valuation recorded 131 cessations of spouse pensions due to remarriages over the period 2008-12.
A small number of letters have been received in the Home Office from widows of police officers on this issue.
Under the 1987 Police Pension Scheme, in common with most other public service pension schemes of that time, benefits cease to be payable where a widow or widower remarries or cohabits with another partner. The rules were changed in 2006 for the 2006 Police Pension Scheme which was costed to allow for these benefits, and there are no proposals to apply these changes to the 1987 scheme in England and Wales. The police pension scheme in Scotland is a matter for the Scottish Government.
As part of the police pension scheme valuation as at 2012 the scheme actuary estimated that ignoring cessation on remarriage for current and future widows would increase the schemes\u2019 liabilities in England and Wales by around £50 million based on recent rates of remarriage, not including the cost of reinstating pensions of widows who have already remarried.<\/p>

Practical driving test candidates in Kilmarnock currently have access to a test centre at Irvine 6.5 miles or 12 minutes away. Adding an additional test centre location at Kilmarnock Goods Vehicle Testing Station would not provide any significant improvement in service delivery but would create additional operating costs which would ultimately be passed on to DVSA customers.<\/p>
