  • (1) The Chancellor of the Exchequer shall, within three months of the passing of this Act, undertake a review of the overall impact of the changes made by sections 16 and 17 of, and schedules 2 and 3 to, this Act, on:
  • (a) the structure of bank balance sheets;
  • (b) the long-term tax revenue from the banking sector; and
