Notice Title

Pensions Specialist Lawyer for Re-drafting of Secondary Legislation

Notice Description

Expressions of Interest Pensions Specialist Lawyer for Re-drafting of Secondary Legislation The Isle of Man Government invites expressions of interest from appropriately qualified pensions specialist lawyers to provide services to re-draft two sets of secondary legislation for the provision of public sector pension benefits for the Teachers Superannuation Order 2010 and to amalgamate and re-draft the Police Pension Regulations 1991 and Police Pension Regulations 2010 for the Public Services Pension Authority. The Pension provision for Police and Teachers on the Isle of Man has historically been based upon the public sector pension provisions in place in the United Kingdom in terms of retirement ages, benefits and contributions. At the time the Schemes were introduced, the Managing Departments had chosen to broadly mirror the equivalent UK schemes via legislation drafted and applied in the Isle of Man. Consequently, the Police and Teachers Schemes are currently being administered from the respective English version of the legislation and all have been adapted and amended from time to time to tie in with the Island's circumstances in relation to the employment of Police and Teachers. The Public Sector Pensions Authority therefore wishes to appoint an organisation with a proven track record in providing specialist pensions legislative drafting services with the aim of reviewing the current arrangements in place, and to subsequently draft: (i).Updated consolidated versions each of the following pension schemes (the Schemes): - Teachers' Superannuation Order 2011; - Police Pension Regulations 1991; and - Police Pension Regulations 2010 (ii). draft supporting administration guides to all three schemes. In order to participate in this competitive exercise, your organisation must be registered on the Isle of Man Government's Procurement Portal. If you have not previously registered, please visit https://in-tendhost.co.uk/iomg/aspx/Home and select 'Register' from the menu on the right side of the Home Page. Once you have registered your organisation you should select this tender from the list of 'Current Tenders' and 'View Details' then click 'Express Interest' at the bottom of the page. Once you have clicked on 'Express an Interest' a 'Form of Acknowledgement' tab will appear. This tab will provide a copy of the 'Appeals Procedure' to be downloaded. In order to progress to the next stage of the process you will need to 'Opt-In' and complete the 'Form of Acknowledgment' questionnaire and click 'Submit Return' before the Expression of Interest deadline as detailed below. Should you have any difficulty in using the website or registering your interest in this way, please e-mail procurement@gov.im Expressions of interest must be submitted through the above Portal by noon 28th October 2021.
