  • CSC Computer Sciences Ltd Pension Scheme (“The Scheme”)
    CSC Computer Sciences Ltd Pension Scheme (“the Scheme”) Chair’s Statement of DC Governance for the period from 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020 I am pleased to present the Trustee’s statement of governance, covering the period 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020 for the money purchase benefits in the Scheme. This statement describes how the Trustee seeks to ensure that the Scheme is well-managed and delivers excellent services to members. The statement examines four key areas of the Trustee’s governance, namely: • The investment strategy relating to the Scheme’s default arrangement; • The processing of core financial transactions; • Charges and transaction costs within the Scheme including the pounds and pence illustration of the compounding effect of charges; and • The Trustee’s compliance with the statutory knowledge and understanding requirements. In doing so, we provide the various statutory disclosures required by the Occupational Pension Schemes (Charges and Governance) Regulations 2015. Monitoring the overall quality of the Scheme arrangements is a complex task that the Trustee takes seriously. The Trustee is supported in this process, as well as the day-to-day business of running the Scheme, by Willis Towers Watson (the provider of administration and communications services for the Scheme), Premier Pensions (Scheme Secretary) and Mercer Limited (an independent advisor, covering governance, investment advice and wider Defined Contribution (‘DC’) matters). Post year-end Scheme merger Following the merger of Computer Sciences Corporation and the Enterprise Services business of Hewlett Packard Enterprise, DXC Technology Inc. (the ultimate parent company of the Principal Company), has been examining how the governance arrangements of the group’s pension schemes, including the CSC Computer Sciences Ltd Pension Scheme, can be improved and operating costs reduced.

Hahn Mayor, City of Los Angeles Room 303, City Hall Los Angeles, California 90012 Attention: June Lagmay PROPOSED CONTRACT EXTENSION FOR MERCER HUMAN RESOURCE CONSULTING The City's Joint Labor-Management Benefits Committee (JL-MBC) voted at its February 17, 2005 meeting to recommend to the Personnel Department General Manager that a transmittal be submitted to the City Council for the purpose of extending the current Employee Benefits Consultant and Communications Services Contract with Mercer Human Resource Consulting for eight months beyond the 5-year contract that expires on April 26, 2005. The Second Amendment to the Third Supplemental Agreement to City Contract No. C-1 00324 will extend the term of the Contract from April 27, 2005 through December 31, 2005. A Request for Proposal (RFP) for the provision of these services was released in October 2004, but the JL-MBC was not able to reach a consensus regarding the selection of a vendor for the next three-year period. At the referenced meeting, the JL-MBC voted that it was in the best interest of the City to cancel the RFP and develop/release a new RFP. The extension of the existing Mercer contract is essential to provide continuity of employee benefits consulting services during this period.
