In a press release issued by a forum of public sector registered pension schemes in Ho, the Forum rejected the selection of one particular trustee to manage the second tier for all public sector workers, indicating that the government should allow the second-tier pension scheme to become fully operational in accordance with the Pensions Act 2008 (Act 766).
