My question is to the Prime Minister, and it refers to the ministerial code. I refer to the Prime Minister's comments on 8 July this year when he said: 'Well, what we need is transparency. I want politics to be cleaned up, and that's why we will have strict adherence to the ministerial code of conduct.' Prime Minister, we are now in a position where ministers are liquidating their interests at a rate of knots. Given that three ministers have disclosed shareholdings when your code prohibits this, who assesses this strict adherence and why have you so dismally failed to enforce it?
