The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, pursuant to the Answer of 23 January 2025 to Question 105926 on National Energy System Operator: Workplace Pensions, what the name is of the defined contribution pension scheme operated by Legal and General; and what information his Department holds on the type of investments, including overseas equities, it makes.

Answered by Michael Shanks

National Energy System Operator (NESO) is an operationally independent public body and manages their own pension arrangements. The Department does not hold detailed information on NESO’s defined contribution pension scheme. There is some information available publicly in NESO’s latest annual report and accounts.
