I was delighted to meet this morning with Minister Sarah Jones regarding the British Coal Staff Superannuation Scheme (BCSSS).
This meeting follows my meeting with the BCSSS Trustees last month (picture below).
Many of you have raised with me your concerns about this Scheme, particularly regarding there being similarities with some of the injustices in the Mineworkers’ Pension Scheme which Labour delivered on earlier this year.
I am pleased to confirm that the Minister has also met the BCSSS Trustees this week and has committed to talking to the Treasury about their proposals.
