In a statement released by VAG on Wednesday, March 27, 2024, all Cap 30 Pension Associations, including VAG, are mandated to validate their members quarterly and submit the returns to the Controller and Accountant General for processing of their pension payments.
Failure to comply with this requirement may result in individuals being removed from the payroll.
