The Public Service Pensions Act 2013 (c. 25) (“PSPA 2013”) makes provision, and confers powers to make further provision (in the form of “scheme regulations” as defined in section 1 of PSPA 2013) about the establishment of public service pension schemes. The Firefighters’ Pension Scheme (England) Regulations 2014 (S.I. 2014/2848”) (“the 2014 Regulations”) are the scheme regulations establishing the successor firefighters’ pension scheme (“the reformed scheme”) to the schemes established by the Firemen’s Pension Scheme Order 1992 (S.I. 1992/129) and the Firefighters’ Pension Scheme (England) Order 2006 (S.I. 2006/3432) (“the legacy schemes”). The 2014 Regulations provided for transitional protection for certain cohorts of legacy scheme members. Transitional protection of this sort was subsequently found to unlawfully discriminate between legacy scheme members on the basis of age.
