Several hon. Members rose—
Madam Deputy Speaker (Ms Nusrat Ghani)
Order. Time is short, so I will now call the Front-Bench spokespeople. I call the shadow Secretary of State for Defence.
James Cartlidge
On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. Are there any rules whereby the amount of transparency from a Government should be determined according to the size of their majority?
Madam Deputy Speaker (Ms Nusrat Ghani)
I think the Member knows that that is not a matter for the Chair. Let the Minister continue.
Catherine West
That was the second point of order that was not really a point of order. It is quite fun to be in opposition, but what we have seen in the past 24 hours is genuine leadership on defence matters, as opposed to some very high jinks.
