Proceeding contribution from Linsey Farnsworth (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 22 June 2026. It occurred during Adjournment debate on British Coal Staff Superannuation Scheme.
British Coal Staff Superannuation Scheme
I congratulate the hon. Member for Ashfield (Lee Anderson) on securing this debate and thank him for his service down the mines. I say that as a coalminer’s daughter, and I put on record that I am proud of my dad for the work he did. The Minister mentioned the delays caused by previous Governments’ inaction. I am glad that this Government are acting, but every day former miners and mineworkers are passing away. Can he reassure those affected by this injustice in my constituency of Amber Valley that he is working as fast as possible to resolve this issue?
