Pension Schemes Act 2021

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

What to do with it
As published

39 Implementation strategy

(1) If a triggering event occurs in relation to a collective money purchase scheme, the trustees must— (a) produce a document setting out how the interests of members of the scheme are to be protected following the occurrence of the event (an “implementation strategy”), and (b) submit it to the Pensions Regulator for approval before the end of a period specified in regulations made by the Secretary of State. This is subject to subsections (2)(a) and (3)(a). (2) If an item 1, 2 or 3 triggering event occurs within the triggering event period for an earlier triggering event— (a) the trustees are not required to submit an implementation strategy in respect of the earlier triggering event; (b) any implementation strategy approved by the Pensions Regulator in respect of the earlier triggering event ceases to have effect when the later triggering event occurs. (3) In the case of an item 1 or 2 triggering event— (a) the trustees are required to submit an implementation strategy only if the decision to withdraw authorisation has become final (see section 35); (b) if it becomes clear that authorisation is not to be withdrawn, subsection (2) ceases to have effect on the date on which that becomes clear. Subsections (3) to (5) of section 32 apply for the purposes of paragraph (b) above as they apply for the purposes of subsection (2)(c) of that section. (4) The Pensions Regulator may direct the trustees to comply with a requirement imposed by this section. (5) Section 10 of the Pensions Act 1995 (civil penalties) applies to a person who fails to comply with a direction under subsection (4). (6) This section overrides any provision of the collective money purchase scheme, to the extent that there is a conflict. (7) Regulations under subsection (1)(b) are subject to negative resolution procedure.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
