Pension Plan

15. Pension Plan

We operate both defined benefit and defined contributions pension schemes in the UK. The defined contribution scheme assets are held separately from those of the Company in an independently administered fund. The defined benefit section has been closed to new entrants since April 1, 1999 and closed to future accruals for services rendered to the Company for the entire financial statement periods presented. On March 15, 2019, it was agreed that no further deficit reduction contributions shall be made to the scheme, except in the event that the scheme funding level does not progress as expected, in which case contingent contributions would be made subject to an agreed maximum amount. It was determined that contingent contributions of $1.1 million and expense contributions of $0.4 million would be payable during the year ended December 31, 2020, with agreement reached with the trustees of the scheme to defer $0.4 million of the contingent contributions into the year to December 31, 2021 The funding level of the scheme will next be tested against the expected position at December 31, 2020 to determine whether further contingent contributions are payable over the year to December 31, 2021.

The total amount of employer contributions paid during the six months ended June 30, 2020 amounted to $0.1 million.
