The Attorney General noted changes to the Financial Emergency Act affecting the pensions estate charge. The act now excludes certain encumbrances from the Commonwealth priority and clarifies that loans realisable on pensioners property can be made without risking the Crown’s preeminent lien, provided they are bona fide and for value.
