Thank you for your request for information about the following:

Request

‘I am looking into Pension Scheme statistics, including cashflows. This information was included in actuarial valuation reports up to 31/3/1999.

It is then included in annual Resource Accounts documents, which I am able to access from 1/4/2002 onwards.

For the period 1/4/1999 to 31/3/2002 (i.e. 3 Scheme accounting years), I cannot locate any cashflow data. I suspect that Resource Accounts were not required for this period? If that suspicion is incorrect, are you able to provide Resource Accounts documents that cover that 3 year period?

If no Resource Accounts are available, is there any similar set of accounts that show Scheme cashflows for that 3 year period? If so, can you please send copies of these?’

The NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) received your request on 24 March 2026.
