The clerk to the committee has advised me that we can resubmit those amendments for another Bill. The concept of those amendments were that pensioners and deferred pensioners in a company should have a right of representation when it comes to decisions being taken about companies, particularly about company pension funds. We have a situation this week where company pensioners are being subject to severe income cuts and they do not have the potential of making up that cut. I give notice that I will submitting amendments to the industrial relations (amendment) Bill in relation to the rights of company pensioners and company pension holders to be consulted when it comes to the industrial relations aspect of it.
