Madam Speaker, on this matter of ruling questions out of order because they are not to do with government business, which you did during question period, there was one particular instance where you ruled one of our questions out of order, but then recognized the government minister to respond to a question that you had ruled out of order.
I question this practice, and I would like you to explain why it is appropriate to allow a government minister to respond to a question that you had actually ruled is not in order.
