<p>Government policy is for public sector workers to have a normal pension age equal
and linked to the state pension age. Parliament defined ‘members of a police force’
in the Public Service Pensions Act 2013 in such a way as to exclude Civil Nuclear
Constabulary officers from the special arrangements that were made for Home Office
police forces under that Act. A recent High Court judgement confirmed this interpretation.
The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy will work with the Civil
Nuclear Police Authority to put in place the appropriate pension arrangements for
Civil Nuclear Constabulary officers, within the parameters set out in the legislation.</p>
