In this CMS Pensions LawCast episode, Louise Webb and Simon Lewis joined Jae Fassam and Hadassah Shulman to discuss The Pensions Regulator’s (TPR) Single Code and the issues raised.

You can watch on YouTube or listen on CMS’s Pensions podcast channel.

We have more information on the single code here following the consultation, which closed at the end of May, highlighting our initial views and the key things pension trustees need to know.

Since recording the podcast, TPR has issued its interim response to TPR’s new code of practice consultation issued. It is worth noting the final publication date for the new code has not been set but it is unlikely to become effective before summer 2022. It is heartening the concerns we raised in our response (including the regulatory burden of the new Own Risk Assessment) were featured in many responses to TPR’s consultation. TPR intends to consider these responses in more detail before issuing a full response. We will continue to monitor progress and keep you updated.
