I agree with your analysis Paul. I assume the auto-three months has been awarded, if nothing else?
Given the circumstances, it *might* be worth asking for a liability write-off equivalent to the CTB that would otherwise have been payable.
One other thought... I don't suppose there was anything in the Pension Service paperwork that could constitute a claim for CTB? In light of "Novitskaya", a claim for CTB would not need to be expressed precisely.
