question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, for what reasons the National Employment Savings Trust is exempt from the requirements for improved governance of workplace pensions schemes set out in his Department's publication, Better workplace pensions: Putting savers' interests first, Cm 9000.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/06/2015 answer text <p /> <p>The National Employment Savings Trust (NEST) is subject to most of the requirements set out in Better workplace pensions: Putting savers' interests first, Cm 9000. There are a small number of areas where NEST already has particular (usually stronger) governance requirements set out in the Pensions Act 2008. The rationale for exempting NEST from certain provisions in the Occupational Pension Scheme (Charges and Governance) Regulations 2015 was so as not to contradict these primary legislation requirements.</p> answering member constituency North Swindon answering member printed Justin Tomlinson question first answered 09/06/2015 13:43:44 answering member 4105 label Biography information for Justin Tomlinson
