Lord Callanan (Con)
We do disapprove of these practices, which is why, as I said to the noble Lord, Lord Woodley, we are producing a statutory code and will consult on it shortly.
Lord Young of Cookham (Con)
My Lords, is it not the case that the Government themselves have been guilty of firing and rehiring Ministers?
Lord Callanan (Con)
In his excellent way, the noble Lord makes a good point. I am sure it will give all of us, including the Prime Minister, cause for reflection.
