Carmarthenshire County Council calls on the Dyfed Pension Fund to end investments that fund human rights violations

Carmarthenshire County Council has called for the Dyfed Pension Fund to end investments that fund human rights violations.

A motion passed by the Council on 10 September called on the pension fund not to “partake in investments which fund war, human rights violations” or “breaking of international law regardless of how profitable they are.” It also called on the pension fund committee and the Wales Pension Partnership to “regularly review and report on the divestment process”.
