Is there anyway to release a government pension scheme before retirement? ive been paying into it for a couple of months before opting out, and the local council are saying i cant touch it till i retire. doe anybody know of any loopholes?
I believe the 2 year rule is still operating. Most of not all Government departments insist on buying you back into the State (as distinct from Government department civil service scheme) if you leave with less than 2 years service.
