Local Government Pension Scheme benefits spend increased 12% from 2010-11 to 2011-12 according to statistics from the Department of Communities and Local Government.

Last year’s spend was £6.7 billion and this year’s £7.5 billion. Meanwhile, the income from employee contributions declined 6% to £1.8 billion in 2011-12. Income from employers’ contributions diminished only slightly, by 0.4% year on year.

At the end of March 2012 the market value of LGPS funds was £148 billion, an increase of 4% on March 2011 and an increase of 52% on March 2009. Income from investments was also up from 2010-11 by 13% to £3 billion.

The number of employees in the Scheme decreased 4% year on year as the number of people leaving it due to redundancy increased over 55% on 2010-11 to more than 27,400.

The number of former employees entitled to deferred benefits rose to 1.4 million in 2011-12, an increase of 7% over 2010-11 and an increase of 35% over 2007-08.
