The question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what assessment he has made of the implications for his Department's policies of the National Audit Office's report of 16 June 2025 entitled Investigation into the administration of the Civil Service Pension Scheme.

Answered by Anna Turley

The Government’s assessment is that the National Audit Office (NAO) report of 16 June 2025 reinforces the need for markedly stronger governance, oversight and performance management over the administration of the Civil Service Pension Scheme.

There is a continuing commitment to the forthcoming outsourcing arrangement with Capita, commencing in December 2025.
