Welcome to the Autumn 2013 edition of TUC member trustee news.

Welcome to the Autumn edition of the TUC's trustee newsletter. You will see from our front page that it's an exciting time for the trade union movement, as unions begin to put their money where their mouth is on pension funds and responsible investment. You can read more about the new

Trade Union Share Owners initiative on page 4. It's also an exceptionally busy time for everyone

connected with pensions as the Pensions Bill continues its journey through Parliament. The Bill will transform the UK's state pension system but will also have a direct impact on trustees of

workplace pension schemes, as the government looks to cap scheme charges, introduce a new system of pension transfers and revise the Pensions Regulator's approach to DB funding. You

can read more about the Bill on this page - and see page 8 for more on the TUC's vision

for a 'third consensus' in UK pensions policy. We are also eagerly looking forward to this year's annual trustee conference. See www.tucmembertrustee.eventbrite.com
