Public Consultation on the exercise of Member State discretions in Regulation (EU) 2019/1238 on a Pan-European Personal Pension Product (PEPP) June 2022
The Department of Finance invites interested parties to make submissions in relation to the exercise of the national discretions contained in the Pan-European Personal Pension Product (PEPP) Regulation (EU) 2019/1238.

While the majority of the provisions of the PEPP Regulation have direct effect from 22 March 2022, there are a number of provisions in the Regulation to which Member States are given discretion as to their application.
The consultation period will run to 13 July 2022. Submissions received after this date will not be considered.

The comments received will be taken into consideration when deciding how best to transpose the PEPP regulation into Irish law.
