Civil Servants: Workplace Pensions
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what contingency plans he has in place if Capita is deemed unsuitable to continue administering civil service pensions.
Answered by Anna Turley
Contingency plans are linked to contractual obligations placed on the pension administrator with several options available to the Cabinet Office in the event that a third party is unable to meet its contractual obligations. In the event of a catastrophic failure, the Cabinet Office has the right to step in to manage the contract.
