Find out how your pension may be affected
The McCloud Remedy will lead to different results for different protected members. In this section, we look at how different members and their families might be affected and what the remedy means for them.
The information on this page is for members who have underpin protection because of the McCloud remedy. Remember – not all members are protected by the McCloud Remedy. Use the ‘Am I affected‘ tool to find out if you are. You can also see examples of how different members are affected.
