Amendment to Standing Order 29(3) – Local Government Pensions Board

In April 2015, the Court of Common Council approved the creation of the Local Government Pensions Board, consisting of three Scheme Administrator (employer) representatives and three Scheme Member (employee) representatives. The Scheme Administrator representatives consisted of two Members of the Court of Common Council and one Senior Officer.

Given the requirement for either the Chairman or Deputy Chairman to be a Member of the Court of Common Council, alongside there only being two Members of the Court on the Board, it was considered prudent to recommend that Standing Order 29(3) be amended to enable the Chairman of the Board to also be Chairman of another Grand Committee at the same time.

Resolved - That Standing Order 29 (3) be amended to enable the Chairman of the Local Government Pensions Board to also be Chairman of another Grand Committee at the same time.
