Most people are under the impression that civil service pensions were 'non contributory'. Technically 'yes' but actually 'no'.
For most of my 35 years there, pay scales were set by a pay comparison quango which looked at comparable occupations in the private sector then
made a deduction for the 'non contributory perk'.
