This book is a useful summary of the various way of resolving pensions disputes and an interesting discussion of the possibilities of Alternative Dispute Resolution in the field of pensions.A readable book which uses simple language and which should be especially useful for scheme trustees.... the book is certainly highly informative and usually intelligible to the lay person with a basic knowledge of pensions and can be recommended to pension managers and trustees of UK pension schemes who need to be aware of their responsibilities in this area.
