In fairness to the Leader of the Opposition, I think he wants to come in on that.

Thank you, Mr Speaker. I am sorry if I inadvertently misled the House. I had been led to believe that there was going to be a statement today, which is why I made the reference to it. I must say that I am a bit surprised that there has not been a statement yet on something of such importance as the reopening of Stormont in Northern Ireland.

I am sure that as soon as a statement is to be made the House will know and I will ensure that Members are aware of it.
