Recommendation 14

14

Set out plans to ensure every trustee board has at least one accredited member

Recommendation
Member-nominated trustees play a vital role in representing the interests of scheme members and providing a link to the workforce. As part of its planned engagement with stakeholders, DWP should explore ways to support lay trustees with the time and costs needed to become accredited and report the results. It should set out plans for ensuring every trustee board has at least one accredited member, lay or professional and a timetable for achieving that. (Paragraph 109) Defined benefit pension schemes 57
