I propose to take Questions Nos. 258 and 259 together.

I have asked my officials to compile the data sought by the Deputy and will publish it when it becomes available. When that task is completed, I will then examine the implications, if any, of having the equivalent data made available to the House on an ongoing basis. I will communicate with the Deputy in that regard after the recess.
