4277 - POLICE SUPERANNUATION SCHEME NOTIFICATIONS

Hornery, Sonia to the Treasurer

(1) Considering legislation that governs the Police Superannuation Scheme does not specify which persons can notify State Super following the death of a member, are changes to legislation being considered to restrict who can notify superannuation companies about the death of a member?

(a) If not, what plans are in place to ensure that errors or vexatious notifications that are made would not see the spouse of a member have their pension cut off?

 
Answer -

State Super has advised, to its knowledge, there has never been a vexatious notification from anyone to advise of the death of a pensioner in order to have their pension 'cut off'. Accordingly, no changes to current procedures are proposed.
