Mr President, I raise a point of order on direct relevance. The question referred the minister to the proposed establishment of the office and said: 'Will the minister give one example of egregious handling or dismissal of a complaint about a news story that he would expect to be prevented under his proposed reforms?' That is all he was asked—if he could give a single example. If there is no example he can say so. If there is an example he can say so. But he was not asked about the legislation; he was asked to give a single example of a news story that would be affected by it.
