I remind the Deputy that the naming of persons outside of the House is specifically regulated by Standing Orders and by the rulings of the Chair. The general practice is that such persons should not be named or referred to or identified, particularly where to do so would be an unreasonable invasion of privacy or where the reference could be in the nature of being a defamatory utterance under Standing Order 59. The persons who may be involved in the matter of penalty points, as raised in questions, are not guilty of any wrongdoing and are entitled to have their good names preserved. Therefore, I ask the Deputy to resume her seat as naming names is unacceptable.
