It is noi possible for ihe Charity to obtain sufficient inforrnation to enable it to account for the Scheme as a defined benefrt Scheme. Therefore. it aeeounts for the 5eheme as a defined contribution scheme and contributions are recognised in income and expenditure in the peiiod io which they relate. The defined eontribution Social Housing Pension Scheme that is Currently open. meets the requirements fgr auto enrolment, and durin8 the year.

The contributigns for employees and ihe employer are determined by the Government Actuary and are paid to the Exchequer which in turn meets the c05t of payin8 benefit5 as and when they fall due. As stated In note 10 the NHS Pension kherne is an unfunded multi*mployer pension scheme operated on a pay.a￿yOu-8o basis. The NHS Pension Scheme is therefore treated as a defined eontribulion scheme and the contributions recogni5ed as they a￿ paid each year.

The e￿imate$ and associated 355umptions are based on historical experience and other factors that afe wnsidered to be relevant. Actual results may differ frgm these estimates. The estimates and underlying aswmptions are reviewed on an ongoing basi5. Revisions to attountine estimaies are reco8nised in the period in which the eslima￿ is wised. The c05t ol the LGP5 defined benefit pension plan5 With Buckin8hamshire County Council and the London Borough of Sulton. and the SHPS scheme. have been determined by full auuarial valuation5 to 31 March 2019.

Ihe underlying 355umption5 and the long-term nature of the schemes, such estimates are subject to significant uncerrainty. In determining the appropriate discount rate. the management consider the market yield of AA corporate bonds tonsistent with the currency and tem of the defined benefrt obligatiC+n. The mtrtality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables, which uses data for UK self-administered pension schemes and allowing for unexpected future improvement5 in longevity.

Growth Flan The growth plan is a registered occupational defined tontribution pension scheme.

The Growth Plan Series 3 ha5 been deterrnined by legislation to be a defined benefit scheme. It is not possible lor the Charity to obtain sufficient iTrformation to enable it to account for the stheme as a defined benefit stheme. Therefore it accounts for the scheme as a defined contribution Scheme. The treatment of the Serie5 3 employer debt was reviewed under the Peftsiiyts Att 2011 and the Serie5 3 Growth Plan does create a liability lor the employer if they cease to participate in the Plan or the Plan is wound up. A full actuarial valuation for the scheme was canied out at 30 SePtem￿r 2017. This valuarion showed assets of £794.9m. liabilities of É926.4m and a éeficit of £131.Sm. The level of fuftdi￿ has required a recovery plan to be put into plèce. ènd this aims to eliminate the deficit via a combination of additional contribution5 from employers and investment ￿turnS for the next year. The contributions agreed by AmbieTrr under the recovery plan for the year from l April 2021 will be £2.942 12020.. £2.8561 with total recovery plan contritrmjtions due of £11.62612020.. £13.7751. •> Pension Sc￿me under NH5 Dir•rti¥es Staff that have transferred into Ambient employment as members of the NHS Pension Scheme, which is a Statutory heme with benefits Buaranteed by law and paid for from the Exchequer. have had their pension protected under TUPE.
