Download or read book HM Treasury Freedom and Choice in Pensions Cm 8835 written by Great Britain: H.M. Treasury and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2014-03-19 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This consultation form a key part of a wider set of reforms announced at Budget 2014. The government is keen to ensure that individuals who want to save are supported in doing so. The nature of retirement is changing as people are living longer and their needs more varied. In this Government's view the State should not be imposing restrictions on individuals who have made tough choices to save for the future. So from next year there will be no restrictions on people's ability to draw down from their defined contribution pension pots after age 55. The tax rules will be drastically simplified to give flexible access to pension savings. Consumers will therefore also need to be well informed to make their choices and the Government will introduce a new duty on pension providers and schemes to deliver a 'guidance guarantee' by April 2015. They will also make available a £20 million development fund to get the initiative up and running

Download or read book The Asset Protection Scheme written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2010-12-21 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Treasury's Asset Protection Scheme to protect over £280 billion of Royal Bank of Scotland's financial assets against losses has, so far, only been partially successful in encouraging lending to creditworthy borrowers on the scale originally envisaged. The Scheme, launched in early 2009, initially involved two banks. RBS eventually put £282 billion of assets into the Scheme, while Lloyds Banking Group paid £2.5 billion to exit the Scheme in November 2009 and instead raised additional capital from shareholders. The principal elements of the Scheme, particularly the first loss, were based on a robust assessment of incentives and on as complete information on the underlying assets as were available at the time. As part of the Scheme, Lloyds and RBS agreed lending targets. While both banks met targets for mortgage lending, there was a shortfall of £30 billion against targets for lending to business. Value for money in the longer term will depend heavily on incentives built into the Scheme to encourage good management of assets. Establishing a requirement for RBS to bear the first £60 billion of losses (a 'first loss') was crucial in providing the right incentive for the bank to manage its assets effectively. However, if the first loss is exceeded, RBS will have less financial incentive to avoid further losses although the bank considers it will still have a legal and moral obligation to manage the assets as best it can. The position of taxpayers would be particularly vulnerable if losses were to exceed about £73 billion
Download or read book Hm Treasury written by Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Treasury Committee and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Treasury Committee report is an inquiry into the work of the Treasury, focusing in particular on the Treasury in Government as well on the expenditure and administration of the Treasury. Key themes in the report are: the accountability of the treasury to Parliament; recent developments in the control of public expenditure; the involvement of the Treasury in policy making; the management of Treasury staff. The report does not look at the way the Treasury manages the economy or other aspects of the Treasury's work such as its relationship with the Bank of England and the Financial Services Authority. The report acknowledges that the UK Treasury is one of the world leaders in implementing reforms such as resource accounting and budgeting, the private finance initiative and the Public Service Agreements (PSA). The Committee does not consider that the Treasury should be split into separate economics and finance ministries. Concerns are expressed that the Treasury has begun to exert too much influence over policy areas which are properly the business of other departments. The report recommends that, at the strategic level, the Treasury gives greater attention to ensuring that it gets the balance right in its co-operative workings with other departments. It is important that once expenditure priorities have been set, departments are left with the task a detailed delivery. A large number of other recommendations are made. These include: reviewing the staffing levels; clarifying the incentives and sanctions associated with the PSA system; strengthening the capacity of other departments to help the Government to set priorities and monitor the performance of departments; improving the culture and working conditions.

Download or read book Lessons from PFI and other projects written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-04-28 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lessons from the experience of using PFI can be applied to improve other forms of procurement and help Government achieve its aim of securing annual infrastructure delivery cost savings of £2 billion to £3 billion. To secure the best value for money from all types of procurement, the public sector needs to develop skills the NAO has identified. These are collecting better data to inform decision-making; ensuring projects have the right skills; establishing effective arrangements to test, challenge and, if necessary, stop projects; and using commercial awareness to obtain better deals. The case for using private finance in public procurement needs to be challenged more. Also, privately financed projects will often still be off balance-sheet which may continue to act as an incentive to use PFI. There has not been a systematic value for money evaluation of operational PFI projects by departments. So there is insufficient data to demonstrate whether the use of private finance has led to better or worse value for money than other forms of procurement. The Treasury and departments should identify alternative methods for delivering infrastructure and related facilities services to maximise value for money for government. The NAO welcomes the current plans of the Treasury and Cabinet Office to strengthen project assurance. The report highlights the need for independent challenge capable of stopping projects which do not give the prospect of value for money. This is particularly important as there is still a shortage of the skills needed to manage and oversee complex major projects.
