I thank all Members for their contributions and questions. It is fantastic that the city of my hon. Friend the Member for Glasgow East will host the Commonwealth games again. They were a great success for the country and for countries throughout the Commonwealth last time they were held in that great city. I know that it has had some difficult times lately with the fire at Glasgow Central station. I hope that this summer, we can all enjoy the best that Glasgow has to offer, including the sporting events in Glasgow East.

I thank the shadow Exchequer Secretary for reminding the Committee that he stands up as a thinking man’s Al Carns.
