Through you, Madam Chair, I'd like to say that those of you who have watched events in Westminster will note that we've experienced some turbulence of late, and that's probably an understatement. It's all linked to standards matters and behaviour around the registration of financial interest and additional roles in particular.
We are currently, as are you, in the process of reviewing our code of conduct and trying to establish whether, for example, it should be a limitation of ours that members of Parliament can work in other roles, or a limitation on the amount of money that can be earned.
The consensus seems to be falling around whether or not there is a conflict of interest. Of course these questions arise out of the case of Owen Paterson, MP, who was found by.... The committee agreed with my conclusion that he had been lobbying on behalf of an organization who paid him.
These questions are very live and very real for us at the moment. The conflict of interest point is very, very important. Of course, the line between what's acceptable, what isn't, what's public and what's private shifts and sways as we go through, but I'm sure it's a live interest for you too.
