The Questions Office was trying to help the Deputy to submit a question, in case people think the Deputy was not allowed to ask questions about this issue. The question that the Deputy submitted was out of order according to Standing Orders and was about to be disallowed. To help the Deputy, the Questions Office contacted her so it is wrong to say there was any interference in any question tabled. The simple thing to do would have been to disallow the question so in fairness to the Questions Office, I ask the Deputy to recognise this was done to be helpful.
