There appears to be some confusion among colleagues that Seniority Payments no longer exist.  Although this is the case in England this entitlement still exists in Wales, not just for existing claimants but also for new claimants once colleagues reach the age of 55.

Full details can be obtained in the document available through this link, which in Part 2, Item 6 details the regulations relating to Seniority Payments in Wales.  It also details regulations in relation to  payments in respect of maternity, paternity and adoption leave and long-term sickness leave.
