Hon. Members have tabled a range of wider amendments. We had the chance to debate many of them in Committee, and I will respond further to them at the end of the debate. However, I thank the hon. Members for Torbay and for Caerfyrddin for new clause 2 and new clause 15 on the British Coal staff superannuation scheme, both of which would require the Government to commission an independent review of the sharing of surplus funds with members. Upon reflection, we do not believe in waiting that long, or that more reviews are necessary. Instead, we are acting now.
