Pension Schemes Bill [Lords] – in a Public Bill Committee am 10:45 am ar 3 Tachwedd 2020.
Amendment made: 6, in clause 27, page 17, line 38, leave out from beginning to end of line 40 and insert “The notice must specify—”.—(Guy Opperman.)
This amendment would remove provision requiring a notice from the Pensions Regulator to collective money purchase scheme trustees to include a requirement to assess the extent to which the scheme is operating in a manner fair to all members.
I am very grateful for the support that has been expressed and for the points that the Minister has made. I take his point that there is a consultation under way. I very much hope that the regulator will decide to require information on diversity from the schemes that are set up, and that it will continue to do so as the trustee board develops. However, at this stage I will not press the amendment to a vote.
