    Brief

    Worcestershire County Council seeks to appoint an independent person to support the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) Worcestershire Pension Fund. This appointment is required under The Local Government Pension Scheme (Amendment) (Governance) Regulations 2026, specifically Regulation 53A(5), which mandates that administering authorities delegating functions to committees, sub-committees, or officers must appoint an independent person. The independent person will provide support and oversight across key areas including investment strategy, governance, and administration of the pension scheme. This is a statutory requirement arising from the Council's delegation of relevant pension functions to the Pensions Committee. The role ensures compliance with new governance requirements and strengthens the oversight and accountability of the pension fund's management.
