Overview

Watch our webinar on-demand where Robbie McInroy is joined by Iain Campbell, Susan Black and Ian Colvin, to share their thoughts and key takeaways from Chancellor Rachel Reeves' first budget, delivered on 30 October, and their immediate thoughts on the Mansion House speech. 

We've compiled the following briefing note in response to the speech.

Amid heightened speculation and concerns over potential tax rises and spending cuts, the budget offered few direct changes for pensions. However, there were two items in the budget that are likely to be of particular interest to LGPS funds:

  • The Government’s consultation to bring unused pension benefits and death grants into scope for inheritance tax purposes.

  • The switch in the measure of public debt for its fiscal targets, which now includes the LGPS.

We’ve also compiled the below briefing notes to help consider these areas. 

Who should attend?

This webinar will be aimed at LGPS audience only.

Don't worry if you couldn't join us live. Register anyway, and you'll receive access to the on-demand recording to watch at a time convenient to you.
