I thank the Manager of Opposition Business for his question. I understand why the question was asked. As Speaker, I don't govern any time limits for ministers or prime ministers with respect to answers to questions on notice or undertakings as to when ministers or prime ministers come back to the House. That's well established. It's a matter for the minister concerned or the Prime Minister in terms of timing.
