The court was asked whether the Respondent was ‘in pensionable employment as a nurse’ within the meaning of Regulation 2 of Part R of the 1995 Regulations. She had no nursing qualification, and had worked as a nursery nurse in a hospital. The Authority now appealed against a decision that she was.
Held: The appeal succeeded. The phrase ’employment as a nurse’ within the Regulations had been intended to capture those members of the scheme who were qualified nurses employed in nursing jobs.
