The statement of funding principles is a written statement of the trustees’ policy for ensuring that the statutory funding objective is met, and such other matters as may be prescribed.
800.Subsection (2) requires that the statement records any decisions by the trustees or managers on:
the methods and assumptions to be used in calculating the scheme’s technical provisions; and
the period over which a failure to meet the statutory funding objective would be rectified and the manner in which it will be rectified.
801.Subsection (3) enables regulations to set out the period within which the statement of funding principles must be prepared, and setting out requirements for its review and, where necessary, revision. It is intended that the statement of funding principles should be reviewed at least every three years.
