We can discuss what mechanism should be put in place. We could, for example, allow each questioner to ask one question or to engage in a particular line of questioning and then he or she would be followed by a sweeper who would raise issues that merit discussion in public but are often only dealt with briefly before the conclusion of a meeting. I have mixed views on this. When I am given briefing notes, I sometimes follow them closely. On other occasions, I take an equally good and separate line of approach. There are issues that need to be raised.
