Topic: National Pension Law

It seems that those who are petitioning against the amendments to the National Pensions Law, which was recently passed in the Cayman Islands Legislative Assembly, may have a deficit of facts.

The Cayman Islands Information Commissioner’s Office said Friday that it will make a formal report to the deputy governor’s office alleging that government officials verged on a “complete denial” of a Freedom of Information applicant’s rights under the law and constitution after it took nearly two years for an FOI request for records related to the local pensions investment laws to be resolved.
