member satisfaction
Newham and Hammersmith and Fulham councils are addressing declining member satisfaction and administrative challenges in their pension funds.
Newham Council's pension fund is currently addressing a drop in member satisfaction, with the overall satisfied score falling to 79.4% from 91.1%. This was reported at a Pensions Committee meeting in October 2026. The fund also exceeded its call wait time target in the first quarter of 2026, by 18 seconds over the four-minute goal.
Hammersmith and Fulham Pension Fund is navigating ongoing administration challenges, as discussed by its Pension Fund Committee in March 2026. While the Local Pension Partnership Administration (LPPA) showed improved case processing in the September to December 2025 quarter, issues like increasing legislative complexity and data management persist.
No upcoming meetings are currently scheduled to discuss member satisfaction, which refers to the level of contentment and positive experience members have with their pension scheme and its administration. Councils monitor this to ensure effective service delivery.
