United Kingdom
Subject to paragraphs (2) to (4) each scheme manager must determine—

the manner in which members of the local pension board may be appointed and removed;
the terms of appointment of members of the local pension board.
A local pension board must include an equal number, which is no less than 4 in total, of employer representatives and member representatives and for these purposes the scheme manager must be satisfied that—
a person to be appointed to the local pension board as an employer representative has the capacity to represent the employer; and
a person to be appointed to the local pension board as a member representative has the capacity to represent members.
A member of the authority who is a member of the local pension board must be appointed as either an employer representative or a member representative.
No member or officer of an authority who is responsible for the discharge of any function under these Regulations (apart from any function relating to a local pension board or the Firefighters’ Pension Scheme Advisory Board) may be a member of the local pension board of that authority.
