Original consultation
Summary
Consultation seeking views on proposals for reforming exit payment terms for local government workers.
This consultation ran from
7 September 2020 to 11:45pm on 9 November 2020
Consultation description
As part of a wider programme of cross-public sector action on exit payment terms, this consultation paper sets out the government’s proposals for reforming local government exit payment.
We are seeking information on:
-
the effects that the proposals for reform will have on the regulations which currently govern exit payments (including both redundancy compensation pay and early access to pensions) in local government
-
the impact that the proposals for reform will have on the local government workforce
Consultation responses will inform a full impact assessment, including equalities considerations which will be issued alongside the regulations when these are laid before Parliament.
The closing date for comments on the draft regulations is 18 December 2020. Please send your responses to LGExitPay@communities.gov.uk.
