My question is to the Prime Minister. Why, nine days after Mr Gaetjens told the Prime Minister he was putting his inquiry on hold, did the Prime Minister tell the House about the inquiry 'Those inquiries are being made,' 'This work is being done by the secretary of my department, and 'He has not provided me with a further update,' when, in fact, inquiries were not being made, the work was not being done and Mr Gaetjens had provided an update? Why did the Prime Minister mislead the House?
