Neil Buxton, Technical Specialist - Pension Fund Policy and Governance, presented this report to the Board which provided an update on current developments in the Firefighter pension schemes.  The report particularly detailed the current position in relation to McCloud/Sergeant and the Special Members of FPS 2006 – second options exercise.

Barnaby Briggs, Assistant Chief Fire Officer, thanked the authority for the way it had recently dealt with immediate detriment cases.

Tony Morgan’s commented that there had been good discussions between the government and representative bodies in the Fire Service but that historic administrative practices around paperwork in some fire and rescue services may lead to potential difficulties and suggested this be added to the risk register.
