What does Pensions Regulator mean? The Pensions Regulator (TPR) is the UK regulator for work-based pension schemes in legal practice: it oversees occupational (trust-based) schemes and employer duties for work-based personal pensions, including automatic enrolment. Created by the Pensions Act 2004 (replacing OPRA in April 2005), its statutory objectives are to protect members’ benefits, reduce the risk of claims on the pension protection fund, promote and improve understanding of good administration, maximise compliance with employer automatic enrolment duties, and, for defined benefit funding, to minimise any adverse impact on the sustainable growth of an employer.

This Practice Note This Practice Note reviews mechanisms used in settling litigation. A Tomlin order consists of a consent order paired with a schedule. It operates to stay proceedings on terms that have been agreed. The provisions contained in the schedule may remain confidential. This Practice Note describes the scope of confidentiality attaching to the schedule and sets out how it differs from a standard consent order. Sample wording for a Tomlin order is included, alongside links to precedents, as well as guidance on court approval. It also addresses varying, setting aside and enforcing a Tomlin order, including the considerations the court will take into account when handling applications for each. Further guidance is provided on interpreting and applying the relevant provisions of the CPR; however, some courts and divisions impose very specific requirements for both drafting and approval, and for approaching the schedule and confidentiality issues.
