Decision

Resolved –

1. 1.          That on joining the Pension Board, all new members complete TPR Public Sector Toolkit online training, including the Scam module and the relaunched Hymans Robertson online LGPS Learning Academy Training, within 6 months of their date of joining in order to meet the expectations of TPR and the requirements defined by the Public Service Pensions Act 2013. 
2. 2.          That any existing Board members that have not completed the mandatory training outlined in section 1.1 of the Training Strategy should do this as a matter of urgency.
3. 3.          That Board Members be encouraged to attend external training events provided by PLSA, LGA & Actuarial firms. Consideration should also be given to Local Pension Board Member representation at various national events such as the PLSA Conference and LGA Governance conference.
