Law and Regulation

David Weeks says it is important for regulators and policymakers to involve MNTs in the pensions dashboard and 21st Century Trusteeship initiatives.

A man has been arrested on suspicion of fraud after The Pensions Regulator (TPR) and the police launched an investigation over concerns savers were lured into poorly-run pension schemes.

The directors of collapsed construction giant Carillion were "contemptuous" of funding their defined benefit (DB) pension schemes, and "refused to give an inch", Frank Field has alleged.

Frank Field is to warn Sir Philip Green not to sell his Arcadia business without ensuring defined benefit (DB) pensions are adequately protected, PP can confirm.

Some 79% of people would like to see stricter rules and checks to ensure pension pots are secure, according to a survey by the Pensions and Lifetime Savings Association (PLSA).

The Pensions Regulator (TPR) has named six schemes and their professional trustees which failed to produce compliant chair's statements.

The Work and Pensions Select Committee has urged the FCA to ban the use of contingent charging for pension transfer advice in its latest report into the British Steel Pension Scheme (BSPS).

Ensuring British Steel workers were well-equipped to make a decision on their future pension provision was "afforded insufficient priority", and the regulator now needs to review the process, the Work and Pensions Committee (WPC) has said.

Richard Butcher says we need proper debate about proposed DB solutions to avoid rushed and ill-thought-out legislation

The Pensions Ombudsman (TPO) will become the hub for all pensions dispute resolutions as it plans to subsume The Pensions Advisory Service's (TPAS) team.
