Letter of Comment - Policy & Resources Committee [1Mb]
YOUR PETITIONERS humbly pray that the States may be pleased to resolve:
To direct the Committee for Employment & Social Security to adopt and implement a policy which will ensure that a woman -
(a) who was as at 31 December 2003 married to a contributing man under the Social Insurance (Guernsey) Law, 1978, and
(b) who has following the death of that man remarried a person who has no Guernsey pension entitlement,
may elect on or after reaching pensionable age to substitute their deceased husband's pension average, calculated at the end of the marriage, for their own pension record either for the period of the marriage only, or for the whole of their pension average period.
