Pensions Dashboards Further Consultation: PLSA Response

DWP’s further consultation on Pensions Dashboards set out the notice period and conditions for the Dashboards Availability Point (DAP), the moment when dashboards go live and are made available to the public.

The PLSA has long been calling for greater clarity on the DAP, and welcome that this is now forthcoming. In our response, we do however set out the reasons why 90 days is not long enough to plan and prepare for DAP, and have instead suggested 180 days formal notice with at least 12 months informal indication of a likely DAP date.
