Local government pensions
We represent employers' interests to central government and other bodies on local government pensions policy.
We provide the secretariat service for the Local Government Pensions Committee (LGPC), a committee of councillors constituted by the Local Government Association (LGA), the Welsh Local Government Association (WLGA) and the Convention of Scottish Local Authorities (COSLA).
The LGPC provides technical advice and has a suite of technical guides on the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) and on related compensation matters that it makes available to Pension Fund Administering Authorities and to employers.
We also provide general communication information and provide and maintain a central suite of guides and leaflets for employees and councillors on the LGPS that authorities administering the LGPS may download and personalise for their own use and the use of employers in their fund.
A full programme of pensions training for councillors, pensions practitioners, personnel officers and other employing authority staff with an interest in the LGPS is also available.
