Pensions Regulator Consults on Prosecution Policy for Criminal Sanctions Powers
12 March 2021
On 11 March 2021, the Pensions Regulator launched a consultation on a draft policy setting out the approach it will take in the investigation and prosecution of the new criminal offences introduced by the Pension Schemes Act 2021. Given the breadth of the offences, this consultation is likely to be of interest to anyone who deals with employers or their pension schemes (in any capacity). There are, however, areas where the policy leaves real uncertainty which we touch on in this special edition of the UK: Pensions Update.
