Annual contributor information statements

Police officers who commenced employment with SAPOL before 4 May 1994 are members of the Police Superannuation Scheme (Pension or Lump Sum Scheme).

In September 2003, you will receive your annual contributor information statement as at 30 June 2003. Your annual contributor information statement will outline your member contribution details and your superannuation benefits under the Police Superannuation Scheme. You will also receive a copy of the Report to Members and information on the Investment Performance of the Scheme.

Member superannuation contributions

In line with normal practice, your fortnightly member superannuation contribution to the Police Superannuation Scheme has been reviewed on the basis of your superannuation salary as at 31 March 2003. Your superannuation salary is the salary of your highest rank and increment actually attained in a permanent position (not to include higher-duties salaries) within SAPOL during your service.

Your new fortnightly superannuation contribution deduction, based on your superannuation salary as at 31 March 2003, was deducted from the first pay period in July 2003 (9 July 2003).

If your salary changed (eg higher increment, promotion, pay rise) after 31 March 2003, your fortnightly member superannuation contribution will not be affected until the next review in March 2004.

Superannuation benefits payable to you upon separation from SAPOL are based on your superannuation salary at the date of separation (i.e. promotion, pay rise is taken into account).
