It is an important principle of government that the question should be directed to the correct minister, otherwise members of the opposition will simply start asking questions of anybody on this side of the House, misdirecting it if they feel they are going to get some political gain out of that. This government is about building the economy of the future. It is not about playing their silly political games. They messed up to whom the question was directed. They are trying to make a political point. We are generously offering the correct minister to answer the question. If they do not want the correct minister to answer the question then the answer and the question should be disappeared.
