  • Red Tape Robin Ellison Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-42695-4 — Red Tape Robin Ellison Frontmatter More Information RED TAPE Red Tape tells the sometimes astonishing story of the making of laws, both good and bad, the recent explosion in rule making and the failure of repeated attempts to rationalise the statute books – even governments themselves are concerned about the increasing number and complexity of our laws. Society requires the rule of law, but the rule of too much law means that the general public faces frustrating excesses created by overzeal- ous regulators and lawmakers. Robin Ellison reveals the failure of repeated attempts to limit the number and complexity of new laws, and the expan- sion of regulators. He challenges the legislature to introduce fewer yet bet- ter laws and regulators by encouraging lawmakers to adopt practices that improve the eiciency of the law and the lives of everyone. Too much law leads to frustration for all – Red Tape is a long overdue exposé of our legal system for practitioners and consumers alike. robin ellison is a solicitor, a consultant with an international law irm, Pinsent Masons, where he specialises in the development of pensions and related inancial services products for insurers and other providers, and is the Cass Business School Professor of Pensions Law and Economics, City, University of London. He acts for a number of governments and govern- ment agencies and has been an adviser to the House of Commons Select Committee on Work and Pensions. © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org

  • Parliamentary Contributory Pension Fund
    Parliamentary Contributory Pension Fund Standard Note: SN/BT/1844 Last updated: 3 March 2010 Author: Djuna Thurley Business and Transport Section The Parliamentary Contributory Pension Fund (PCPF) is a funded final salary scheme, where Members pay a fixed contribution, and the Exchequer is liable for the balance. In January 2008 the SSRB published the Review of Parliamentary Pay, Pensions and Allowances 2007. This recommended that any increase or decrease in pension cost pressures should be shared between the contributors and the Exchequer. It also recommended that the Exchequer contribution to the cost of benefit accrual should be limited to 20 per cent of payroll and that if it was likely to rise above this level, there should be a major review of the Fund. These recommendations were endorsed in principle by the House on 24 January. In June 2008, the Government announced that the Government Actuary’s Department (GAD) had now advised that the cost of accruing benefits was likely to rise above 20 per cent of payroll. This effectively triggered the need for the fundamental review recommended by the SSRB, and this was commissioned by the Prime Minister in February 2009. The GAD valuation of the Fund as at April 2008 assessed the Exchequer share of the cost of accruing benefits as 23.1% of salary. However, because additional contributions were needed to amortise the deficit in the PCPF (£50.9 million), the recommended Exchequer contribution rate from 1 April 2009 was 31.6% of salary, minus the value of any changes in member contributions or benefits introduced as part of a cost sharing or cost capping mechanism.

These explanatory notes relate to the Pensions Act which received Royal Assent on 26 November 2008.
