The Minister will resume his seat. I will just say to the minister: the question was very specific, as I've made clear before. These questions can be asked, and it's not an issue of whether it's reasonable enough for the minister to carry that information around with him, but there are other forms of the House where he can present that if he wishes to. So, whilst it was a very tight question, I call the minister, if he wishes to address the question in a way that's relevant to the question, otherwise he will need to resume his seat. Minister.
