§ Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bayasked Her Majesty's Government:
What independent professional advice they are taking, or intend to take, about the impact on pension fund investment strategy of different possible contribution calculations for the Pension Protection Fund, and whether any such advice will be published in full. [HL5362]
§ The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department for Work and Pensions (Baroness Hollis of Heigham)DWP officials are working closely with a wide range of external organisations and key pensions stakeholders, both here and abroad, on issues relating to the Pension Protection Fund. This work is ongoing. We will continue to seek the views of external experts to help us achieve the successful implementation of the Pension Protection Fund. Most of the input we have received so far has been at informal meetings between officials and external stakeholders and we are therefore not in a position to publish it.
