Notice Information
Notice Title
Pensions and Lifetime Saving Association Review
Notice Description
The department is legislating for the Multiple Default Consolidator policy as part of the upcoming pension schemes bill. As part of this policy, a central data infrastructure is required to evaluate the operating model and design of the infrastructure, to ensure that it is effective and delivered at low cost. This review is a challenging, requiring significant technical, digital and pension related understanding, and as such, we have considered that an external body is best placed to undertake this review on our behalf.
