Minutes:
The Head of Pensions (LGPS), Paul Cooper provided feedback on the Committee training undertaken following the Annual Meeting in November, with issues including climate change and UK Opportunities. He reminded the Committee that a summary of training undertaken was reported alongside the Fund’s Governance Compliance Statement. He added that all the elements of the Fun’s approach to training would be codified into a formal training policy, to be brought back to the Committee in March 2024, to include mandatory elements for members of the Committee.
The Chair noted the importance of training for Members and noted that he felt that Durham Pension Fund Members already demonstrated their commitment to learning and development, and that it was important to stay up to date with the changing requirements placed on Committee members.
Resolved:
That the verbal update be noted.
