Thank you for your request for information about the following:

Request

I wish you to supply the following information regarding the McCloud remedy. Of those NHS members currently in retirement and in receipt of an NHS pension:

1. How many members will you be required to issue a Remedial Saving Statement (RSS)?

2. Of this total how many have been issued with their Remedial Saving Statement (RSS)?

3. How many of these members have returned their Remedial Saving Statement (RSS)?

4. Of the members of that have returned their Remedial Savings Statement (RSS) how many have been actioned and completed by NHS Pensions? By actioned I mean all adjustments to monthly pension payments and lump sum payments are completed.
   
   Early in the summer NHS pensions removed the timetable for actioning the McCloud remedy from its website. The website now says We will provide regular updates to Scheme members as soon as updated timelines are confirmed. We will also publish a revised McCloud delivery timetable on our website.

5. What is the latest time scale for the revised timetable to be published?

The NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) received your request on 21 October 2025.
