ANDOVER Labour Party has written to pensions minister Malcolm Wicks on behalf of current Croydex employees who may now receive very little of their pension.

Croydex has been in financial difficulty which involved the winding up of the Croydex Lionheart Pension Scheme.

Propective parliamentary Candidate Michael Mumford said: "The Andover Labour Party was approached to write to the minister. There have been a number of cases in recent years of company pensions getting into difficulty. The new Pension Act has a provision for financial assistance to workers who are now in the very unfortunate position of not receiving the pension that they should be entitled to.
