You will also find additional documents and links relating to the proposals,and the position of the UCU.

A USS Joint Review Group was established at the end of 2008 to undertake a review to determine what changes should be made to USS to ensure that it remains an attractive and affordable defined benefit pension scheme, and one that will continue to be an integral part of the remuneration package to help recruit and retain high quality staff for Higher Education on an ongoing, sustainable basis.
