Employers'
Annual Meeting
This
year’s annual employers' meeting has been delayed until late January when we hope
to know the result of the Exit Payments consultation and the subsequent
necessary change in scheme regulations. Because the funds' employers are based across both Devon and Somerset, we are proposing to hold three meetings across the counties - one each in Exeter, Bideford and Yeovil.
The
proposed locations are:
Exeter Racecourse, Kennford EX6 7XS
Caddsdown Business Support Centre, Bideford EX39 3BE
Buckler’s Mead Academy, Yeovil BA21 4NH
So
that we can get an idea of which locations suit more employers, please vote via this link.
Submitting CARE pay
We have put some brief notes together to offer guidance on completing the annual CARE return, which can be found here.
