Vol. 515 No. 3

Written Answers. - Pension Provisions.

Thomas P. Broughan

Question:

259 Mr. Broughan asked the Minister for Social, Community and Family Affairs if he will request the expansion of the terms of reference of the inquiry into the Irish Press (No. 2) Pension Fund being carried out by the Pensions Board to include the issue of the method of distribution of moneys from the fund in view of the concerns raised by a person (details supplied) in Dublin 5. [5955/00]

As the Deputy will recall, I requested the Pensions Board, as the statutory regulator of occupational pension schemes, to carry out an examination of matters relating to the funding of the pension scheme in question and report back to me.

The Pensions Board has advised that the report should be finalised shortly and I will be in touch with the Deputy at that stage.

In view of the Deputy's comments, I have also asked the Pensions Board to advise me in relation to the distribution of the assets following the wind-up of the scheme.
