Benefits for former members are now held under a plan in their own name – a change sometimes referred to as ‘endorsement’. This change does not affect any income or benefits that former members or any beneficiaries are entitled to.
Copies of the policy documents for former members can be requested by contacting us.
Although the three schemes noted above wound-up with effect from 17 March 2021, PCPTL wishes to still make information about them available.
The following relates to the final scheme year, which ran from 6 April 2020 to 17 March 2021 (to the date of wind-up).
On an annual basis the PCPTL Chair was required to publish a Governance Statement. This described the controls that had been put in place, together with any important decisions that may have been taken, to ensure that its primary aim, to monitor the schemes and act in members’ best interests, was met.
All of the trustee directors were chosen for their skill, knowledge and wide experience in pension provision in the UK and each is an acknowledged expert in specific aspects of pension provision.
The current Chair brings considerable expertise in investment strategy and asset management. He is an expert on how well, and how reliably, a member’s pension pot should grow.

The law on workplace pensions has changed. Every employer with at least one member of staff now has new duties.
If you would like your plan to qualify under the new rules, we may be able to help you, but you will need to let us know six months before your staging date.
The Government has created an employer responsibility to automatically enrol eligible jobholders into a good pension plan, and to make contributions to it.
The rules are now in place and there are a number of issues you will need to consider to practically implement the regulations.
On the 6th April 2015, the Government introduced additional requirements for workplace pensions.
If you are an Employer and want to discuss how we can work together or to find out more details about our corporate solutions, please contact us.
