Seeks views on draft regulations which are required to establish the Fee Paid Judicial Pension Scheme.

Detail

This is a consultation on the draft regulations which are required to establish the Fee Paid Judicial Pension Scheme to comply with court and tribunal rulings in the case of O’Brien and related litigation.

The purpose of the regulations once the draft is finalised and subject to the approval of Parliament is to provide eligible fee paid judicial office holders with pension benefits, both retrospective and going forward, which are comparable to those available for salaried judges (in so far as possible).

The Ministry of Justice welcomes the views of consultees on the draft regulations for the FPJPS, including the added benefits, and also on the draft consequential amendment regulations.
