Agenda item

To consider a report on administration statistics and employer compliance with end of month reporting and payment deadlines for the year 2022-23 to date, and to be advised on any complaints recorded and potential breaches of the law identified since the last meeting. 

The Pensions Manager presented the report on administration statistics, employer compliance with end of month reporting and payment deadlines for the year 2022-23 to date, complaints recorded, and breaches of the law identified. Attention was drawn to key updates relating to the target tracing service, the i-Connect project, the Altair Image document management system, and McCloud data. Consideration was given to the key performance indicators and the hard work of the team was acknowledged. Discussion took place regarding the options available to address the repeated poor performance and issues with obtaining data and contribution payments from St Catherine’s School since re-joining the fund in May 2022, (including issuing penalty fines and writing to scheme members).

Cllr Michael Lilley declared an interest in respect of employer engagement as a member of Ryde Town Council and as the Mayor of Ryde.

RESOLVED:

THAT the report from the Pensions Administration Team be noted.
