HMOCS: REMAINING POLICY ISSUES ON OFFICERS TRANSFERRING FROM
CONTRACT TO PENSIONABLE SERVICE AND TO HMOCS STATUS
=sprovel I Sought.
Problem
1.
A number of issues need to be resolved about contract officers who have recently transferred or will soon transfer to (pensionable and) HMOCS status.
Recommendation
2. I recommend that we should:
(a) take a pragmatic view of bought back service and not try to discount it in any compensation scheme;
(b) set 28 February 1993 as the final date for officers actually to apply for membership of HMOCs;
(c) set 30 April 1993 as the final date for officers to commit to buy back service; and to require them to have bought back their service before the appointed day for HMG's compensation scheme;
