Final pay control for 1995 pension scheme

The government introduced an employer's charge for pensionable salaried pay rises which are over the allowable amount, for employees who are members of the 1995 pension scheme. 

We are aware that some practices are now receiving these charges, and it is recommended that practices familiarise themselves with the process if they have employees who are on the 1995 NHS Pension Scheme.

Guidance from NHS Employers and NHS Business Services Authority should explain how the charges are calculated.
