LGPS (Scotland) Technical guide - list of discretions

This guide is divided into sections covering all of the regulations that govern the LGPS in Scotland, with the last section setting out the timescales by which a mandatory policy must be formulated, published and kept up to date.

To facilitate strong governance, we would recommend that a policy is maintained in all of the areas described herein. Some of the discretionary policies are mandatory, which means that the appropriate party must formulate, publish and keep such policies under review. Where this is the case, the policy is highlighted.
