REPORT
The Regulations governing the Committee of Management of the Public Employees’ Contributory Retirement Scheme provide for the appointment of employer and employee representatives, who sit in an honorary capacity.
Of the seven employer representatives three are nominated by the Treasury and Resources Minister, the remainder by the Chief Minister. With the resignation of Mr R G Bryans, the Chief Minister, in accordance with Regulation 3(5) of the Regulations has chosen Mr S A Lusby, to replace him for the term of office to expire on 31st December 2012.
The seven employee representatives are nominated by the Joint Negotiating Group of the Public Employees Pension Fund.
Please see appendix attached to this report for the relevant background of the nominee.
Membership remains the same for previously nominated employer and employee representatives but is included below for clarity.

Although the States agreed in principle on 2nd February 2010 to amend the procedure for appointments such as this one so that a debate would no longer be needed, that change requires amendments to the Public Employees (Contributory Retirement Scheme) (General) (Jersey) Regulations 1989 under which appointments to the Committee of Management are made. Those amendments are currently being drafted but until they are approved by the States it is necessary for the appointments to be made under the current procedures.
Financial and manpower implications
There are no financial or manpower implications for the States arising from this proposition.
