London 6th September Southbank Centre

On 6th September 2011 at the South Bank Centre the London Pensions Fund Authority held a symposium in which industry experts considered how the target implementation date of 2015 for the new LGPS could be met.

At the same event LPFA's latest green paper 'A new LGPS by 2015: Reality or Aspiration?' was launched.

Speakers at the event included Sire Merrick Cockell the new chair of the Local Government Association, Brian Strutton from the GMB and Terry Crossley from the Department of Communities and Local Government
