Issue - meetings

64.1.     The Board considered a report providing an update on various governance and employer engagement work completed and changes effecting the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) and the Fund.

64.2.     The Chair asked what impact the Government’s recent response to the McCloud judgement would mean for the Fund.

64.3.     SK said the McCloud Working Group will meet in February to discuss how it will affect LGPS, however, the initial understanding is that it will mainly affect public sector unfunded pension arrangements. 

64.4.     SO asked whether letters to employers about ill health retirement had also been emailed, as it was unlikely many people are in office to pick up physical letters.

64.5.     SK confirmed that they had been emailed.

64.6.     The Board RESOLVED to note the report.
