Mr Speaker, on that point of order: previously the Prime Minister has expressed confidence in ministers who are under investigation. We are now asking him whether he will express confidence in the National Security Committee and its former members. It would be extraordinary if that is a question that is somehow not allowed, particularly when investigations previously have provided no bar for the Prime Minister to express confidence in some of his former ministers.
