Manager accused of hiding pension failures

The Pensions Regulator has cracked down on an accounts manager after he allegedly misled the watchdog over workplace pension failings at a string of restaurants.

Bradford-based Mansoor Nasir is accused of submitting false declarations of workplace pension compliance to The Pensions Regulator on behalf of nine businesses he acted as payroll adviser for between September 2014 and May 2017.

The businesses were various "Akbar" restaurants in Birmingham, Manchester, Yorkshire and the North East.

Mr Nasir, who works at Beaumont Management Services in Bradford, faces nine charges of knowingly or recklessly providing TPR with information which was false or misleading, contrary to section 80 of the Pensions Act 2004.

He has been summonsed to appear at Brighton Magistrates’ Court on 9 January 2019.
