In this podcast, Antonia discusses:

  • the outcome of the bona fide purchaser defence, run by Mitchells & Butlers (the scheme's principal employer) for the first time in the context of a rectification claim; and
  • the impact of the judge's findings on what constitutes effective consultation with a scheme's actuary on the validity of historic and future rule amendments.]
