Now, this is where I get a little confused. It strikes me that it must be difficult to sometimes recognize when a minister or minister of state is acting in his or her capacity as a minister, and in his or her capacity as a member of Parliament. I was wondering what guidelines you use to draw that distinction. I think it must be hard. Ministers don't necessarily go around and physically change hats, or change their business cards, I would suspect, or those kinds of things. So how do you draw that distinction between whether they're acting in their capacity as a member of Parliament or as a minister?
