purpose and relevant to payroll. In doing this, we have identified the different skills and knowledge required at each job role within payroll and mapped this to the different membership levels offered by the CIPP. In addition, we have also highlighted the need for a pensions competency framework and will be working with industry professionals to develop this. Over the coming months, we shall be making changes to the application processes for all levels of professional membership. These changes will consider the skills, knowledge and experience identified at each level through the competency framework and will make it clearer to members which level of membership is most applicable to them based on their role. Application forms and guidance notes will be updated to reflect the changes and we will seek volunteers to test each stage of the process. If you are interested in being involved and upgrading your membership, please contact Dawn Baxter, membership manager, at dawn. baxter@cipp.org.uk . Many of you responded that you pay for your membership via debit or credit card and would be happy with this being taken on a recurring payment each year. We have started development of this within our website and CRM systems to enable you to automatically renew each year.

We are looking at making some changes to our system which will allow you to indicate whether you would prefer to receive the printed or online version, or both. The Compact Payroll Reference Book In 2019 we introduced the Compact Payroll Reference Book as part of the membership benefits package for associate, full, Chartered full, fellow and Chartered fellow members. This seems to have been well received by all. When asked about how the Compact Payroll Reference Book could be improved, the resounding feedback was that it was too small and should be made
bigger. This has already been put into practice for the 2020/21 book which will be A5 as opposed to A6 with an increased font size. The book will be delivered to all associate, full, Chartered full, fellow and Chartered fellow members as part of the 2020/21 new tax year pack. n
