Pensions payments for April 2012
Like all public sector pensions yours has been reviewed this year in line with the cost of living. The Government said in 2010 that it would in future be using the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for price indexation of public service pensions. Indexation had previously been based on the percentage rise in the Retail Price Index (RPI - all items).
For the year beginning 9 April 2012 the increase is 5.2%, based on the increase in the CPI.
