Summary

Sections 101 and 102 of the Local Government Act 2003 confer powers on the Secretary of State, the National Assembly for Wales and Scottish Ministers to require best value authorities in England, Wales or Scotland, when engaged in contracting-out exercises, to deal with staff matters (including pensions) in accordance with directions.

The Best Value Authorities Staff Transfers (Pensions) Direction 2007, issued under section 101, secures a 'broadly comparable' pension for staff transferring from a best value authority in England and a Police authority in Wales to a service provider. The Direction comes into force on 1 October 2007.

As part of considering the Direction you may also wish to access our pages on Admitted Body Status provisions within the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS). These provisions enable contractors to provide TUPE transferred local authority employees with continued access to the LGPS.
