About this event
This April, it will have been ten years since all Funds in the LGPS have had to have a Local Board. The keynote session at this year’s training will try to answer the question: Where have Boards been? Where are they now? And where are they going?
Elsewhere, change is the only constant we all have to deal with in the Public Services. Is it different this time though? With a decisive election result and suggestions that the new government could go further and faster with the LGPS consolidation agenda, we will look at what that could mean for Boards.
The attached agenda is subject to change.
