Confused re Pension Sharing

I would be grateful for some help with this:
My STBX has a final salary pension (NHS) which the Actuary says should be split to give me 43%.
I am a bit confused about what'equality at retirement' means.
I am 60 and can have the pension share on DA later this year. He is 10 years younger than me, so will not retire until he is 60 or 65. What I am not sure about is, if he is going to continue working for another 10 or 15 years, and continues to build up his pension, won't he be better off than me at retirement?

Yes, if he continues to build it up, but the split is looking at sharing the pension as it is now, not as it might be in 10-15 years time.

Equality at retuirement usually means looking at what you will each get assuming you each retire at the same age, and taking into account factors such as your gender, health & whether or not you smoke.

I assume that either you also have pensions of your own, or the pension was partly built up before the marraige (or both) and this is why the % is less than 50%.

Thank you for your prompt reply.
So does that mean that the amount I get on DA (43%) stays the same forever, or is it linked to inflation?

You will become a deferred member of the NHS pension scheme, roughly the same as someone who has left the NHS. Your pension will therefore benefit from the automatic increases through to retirement (and beyond).
