URGENT (Consultation deadline 5th July 2026)

Calling all West Sussex supporters of Palestine! West Sussex County Council Pensions Committee are currently consulting with members of their pension scheme AND West Sussex Council Tax payers, regarding the running of the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS). This is a fantastic opportunity for us to raise the issue of the investments WSCC currently holds that assist Israel in its genocide.
Please now express YOUR views in the Council's current Investment Consultation Document.
Here's how:
- click on this link to access the consultation document:
https://yourvoice.westsussex.gov.uk/wspf-iss-consultation
- If you wish, you can fill in all the sections but this is not compulsory. Instead, to get straight to the section on Environmental and Social considerations, you can skip to questions 15-20 and make use of this second link for the model answers provided by the Unison Palestine Supporters Group:
https://unisonwestsussex.org.uk/responsible-investment/
- BUT, please note: if you are not a fund member, you also need to complete the very last section called "about you" / Question 31 or your comments won't be considered.
Very many thanks for your continuing support. At WS-Divest we believe that the new composition of the Council makes it much more likely that we'll get a commitment on Divestment from the Council.
Free Free Palestine
