ESG meeting 1 – feedback report – May 2004

Feedback Report

To kick-start discussions, we asked all three groups what were the main issues arising in the delivery of their pensions role and responsibilities. We then used the afternoon to review the new entrants’ procedure, looking specifically at what we need to improve; it also gave the groups the opportunity to share good practice.

Next Stages

We are reviewing the feedback from the new entrants’ review sessions and we will consult with APACs, Linney and trades unions to take issues forward. We will dovetail the timetable for proposed changes into the Communications strategy where applicable. We will keep you informed of the proposals during the process.

Payroll issues featured quite highly in our discussions around role and responsibilities so we have decided that this will be our topic for discussion at the next series of meetings, which will be held at the end of September/early October. If you have any specific issues about payroll that you would like discussed, please contact us via the Employer Helpdesk (Email: employerhelpdesk@cabinet-office.x.gsi.gov.uk).

We will also be asking the groups to consider issues concerning the marketing of CSPD products in light of the pension reform proposals.
