President, I think this is a very clear case of direct relevance and I'm sure—I could almost feel it in your body language—that, if I hadn't stood when I did, you were about to draw the minister to the question. In the first 30 seconds, she decided to pivot purely to a commentary on the previous government, having been asked a question that solely covered statements of the Prime Minister about the aviation market and a quote from the Aviation green paper and sought clarification of the consistency between those statements. The question was entirely, exclusively about the aviation market and its competitiveness or its concentration.
