The DWP has issued a call for evidence regarding its triennial review of the alternative quality requirements for DB and hybrid schemes being used for auto-enrolment.
The alternative quality requirements are intended to provide a simpler mechanism for employers and their advisers to show that their DB or hybrid schemes meet the quality requirements for auto-enrolment pension provision, and the DWP must carry out a review every 3 years. The review also considers at the quality requirements for CDC schemes. It looks at how the simplifications and flexibilities work in practice, and whether any specific issues have arisen since the previous review.
The call for evidence closes on June 19, 2023.Publication

The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR or the Court) recently ruled in Verein KlimaSeniorinnen Schweiz & Ors v. Switzerland (Application No. 53600/20) that Switzerland had breached the European Convention of Human Rights (the Convention) by not taking sufficient action against climate change. In particular, it found a breach of the right to respect for private and family life contained in Article 8 of the Convention, based on Switzerland’s failure to mitigate the impact of climate change on the lives, health, well-being and quality of life of its citizens. It also ruled that Switzerland had breached the right to a fair trial in terms of Article 6, in that the domestic courts failed to examine the merits of the applicants’ complaints, including the scientific evidence. In this article we consider the key features of this landmark judgment, which has wide ramifications for Member States of the Convention.
