I will not dwell on the issue now because it is more appropriate to the committee. I sit on that committee and will make my views clear there. It is absurd to suggest that a Member of the Parliament, duly elected to this House, cannot comment on persons outside. The whole country is talking about particular individuals and it is nonsensical to suggest that this the only place in which there can be no reference to them. It beggars belief.
