DRAFT LGPS (MISCELLANEOUS) REGULATIONS 2010

Draft LGPS (Miscellaneous) Regulations 2010
Thu Dec 24 2009
THE DEPARTMENT FOR COMMUNITIES AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT (DCLG) has published draft proposals for further amendments to the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) Regulations.
Employers’ comments are invited by 18 March 2010. Stakeholders who wish to discuss the proposals are invited to get in touch without delay to allow discussions to take place within the consultation period.
These Miscellaneous Regulations will amend four sets of Regulations which currently provide the overall regulatory framework for the LGPS in England and Wales - the Administration Regulations, the Benefits Regulations, the Transitional Regulations and the 1997 Regulations.
DCLG state that amendments are necessary ‘to make some corrections and cross-references, to clarify detailed aspects of the Scheme’s extant provisions, to restore minor omitted aspects of the 1997 Scheme, to provide clearer definitions and to introduce some new provisions’.
