§ Mrs. DunwoodyTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions if he will make a reassessment of the case of Mr. Francis Wheeler in respect of his claim for compensation for the loss of pension fund assets from the Bus Employees Superannuation Trust; and if he will make a statement on the Bus Employees Superannuation Trust. [29]
§ Ms Glenda JacksonThe present position is that the trustees of the Bus Employees Superannuation Trust have accepted the then Secretary of State for Transport's offer to meet their costs in pursuing through the Courts recovery of the surplus of the fund paid to my Department in 1990. My Department awaits the trustees' formal statement of claim. I am still studying the legal and other background to this case.
