On a point of order, we were late starting today because a quorum was not established. We did not start until 9.38 a.m. There are eight minutes left. It is very clear under Standing Orders that there should one hour and 15 minutes available for questions. As an Opposition spokesman, I am not having a situation whereby Government Deputies choose not to come at the start of business. There are eight minutes left and there is time for two more questions.
