Petition update, 12 January 2009

More details from petition creator

From April 2006 the Home Office announced that new Police Pension rules would come into place giving lifetime benefits to spouses, cohabitees & same sex partners. All new recruits will join this scheme and all current serving officers are eligible to transfer to the new scheme. Those currently in receipt of the spouse's pension due to a line of duty death do not have this option and pensions will be withdrawn if they cohabit or remarry in the future. By the very nature of these deaths, young families are left behind with no opportunity to rebuild their lives. Their officers did not get the opportunity to transfer to the lifetime benefit scheme due to their premature and untimely deaths on duty. Please petition the Government to change this archaic Victorian regulation.
