    "content": "Order! Order! Order, hon. Members! Order! The hon. Member has done nothing on the Floor of the House. You need to read the Standing Orders properly. The misleading of the House is based on the substance and content. Whether it is this Ministry or the Prime Minister’s Office that should answer the Question is not a misleading matter! The Government has a collective responsibility. It is the view of the Chair based on the amount of interest that the matter itself has generated that the Chair has ruled that it is best going to be served to the Office of the Prime Minister, so that this matter can be put to rest once and for all. But there is no information from the Minister that can be said to mislead anybody! The Question is explicit. It is asking for the criteria and the amount. Other than for the fact that his Ministry did not want to answer the Question at one stage and now wants to answer it, and for dragging in the Office of the Prime Minister as the one which has directed, the Chair does not see anything in the content of the answer given by the Minister to warrant the naming under Standing Order No.97. So, under the circumstances, the matter is put to rest. The Prime Minister is going to respond to this Question during the Prime Ministers’ Question Time on Wednesday, next week. This matter is put to rest! Hon. Minister, as much as you have attempted to answer this Question, you have answered it very appropriately. That is because the Question, itself, was very straightforward and you have given a straightforward answer. But based on the fact that your Ministry has prevaricated and kept on either wanting to answer and not wanting to answer, the matter, consequently, generated a lot of interest. It is on that basis that the Chair rules that the Prime Minister deals with this matter, once and for all, on Wednesday, next week. This matter is put to rest. Next Question!"
