Mr President, on a point of order: with great respect, what you have ruled is that no question can be asked. You have not ruled the question out of order. We have not even got to that first base. You are saying in your ruling, as I understand it—and I do not want to canvass that—that I cannot ask a question without leave. Therefore, I am now seeking leave. You have not ruled the question out of order as offending against the provisions of the standing orders.
