This decision is being implemented by all Government Depts and public bodies. After that date, public service pensions will be paid by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) only. In order to ensure continued payment of pension when Payable Orders cease to issue, DoD have been seeking banking account details from the remaining small number of military pensioners who are currently being paid by Payable Order. Now just a few weeks away from the deadline, the 'closedown' date for the September pensions payroll is 12th/13th of September. If you are aware of anyone who has not yet made the move to EFT, please encourage them to make the necessary arrangements, by providing their bank account details so that we can pay their pension by EFT in September. If you need to discuss this please contact Martin Hughes at 091-743811.
