What is the McCloud judgment? The McCloud judgment is a court ruling from December
2018 that found younger members of the judges’ and firefighters’ pension schemes were
discriminated against because protections introduced in 2014 and 2015 did not apply to them.
This ruling led to changes in all public service pension schemes, including the LGPS, to
remove age discrimination.
