NHS pension scheme stakeholders have been engaged with Department officials in finalising the document.

The Equality analysis ensures that further discussions with NHS pension scheme stakeholders, including the relevant trade unions, on the detailed provisions of the new scheme design, will meet the requirements of the Public Service Pension Bill.
