To clarify, I believe members were circulated with a note in advance. We have bizarre and archaic rules in this House but they are put in place for good reason. I can answer some of these questions but I cannot answer some of the others because I am not directly involved in this process. The people sitting beside me can answer those but, bizarrely, they cannot answer them in public session because of the rules of the House. How do we intend to deal with that? Does the Chairman want me to try to deal with the ones I can deal with-----
