Madam Deputy Speaker, I raise a point of order. The point just raised by the Leader of the House does not address the question of the sub judice rule as it is set out in Practice. Practice simply says when it is acceptable or not acceptable to mention matters before the court in this place. It does not talk about whether or not things are up on websites or anything else. It is quite clear on page 506 of Practice that once it is before a court it may not be dealt with in this place.
