Banning member-borne commission in occupational pension schemes

This consultation seeks views on the best way of regulating to ban member-borne commission payments in relevant occupational pension schemes that:

• provide money purchase benefits
• are being used as qualifying schemes for automatic enrolment

This consultation follows the government’s announcement in March 2014 that its intention was to prohibit member-borne commission payments to an adviser in such schemes from April 2016.
