RECOMMENDATION

The Pension Board is recommended to note the work programme.

---

1          Background & Supporting information

1.1       The work programme contains the proposed agenda items for future Pension Board and Pension Committee meetings over the next year and beyond. It is included on the agenda for each Committee meeting.

1.2     The work programme also provides an update on other work going on outside the Board and Committee’s main meetings, including working groups, upcoming training and a list of any information requested by the Board or Committee that is circulated via email.

1.3       This item also provides an opportunity for Members to reflect on any training they have attended since the last meeting.

1.4       Officers had anticipated bringing a paper on the triennial valuation including the draft Funding Strategy statement that will be circulated to all employers for consultation to this September meeting, however, due to the timing of the meeting and data transfer to the actuary following end of year returns this has not been possible. A report will be taken to Pension Committee later in the month and brought to Board at the next meeting.

2          Conclusion and reasons for recommendations

2.1       The work programme sets out the Board and Committee’s work both during formal meetings and outside of them. The Board is recommended to consider and agree the updated work programme including consideration the regularity of agenda items to ensure effective governance of the Fund at the scheduled meetings.
