Some of the Minister’s staff is, in fact, from that constituency. So, I have risen here with consternation at the presentation by the Minister. He says that Ministers are only provided with information; a presentation that suggested that, in fact, he as the Minister would like to know what the staff was doing. I would have thought that the reason we have Ministers is to take that responsibility."}
