Sir Roger Gale

On a point of order, Mr Speaker. I wish to utilise a rare device, which is a point of order that I believe is genuinely a matter for the Chair. Some weeks ago, the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero issued a determination on a development consent order based upon what I believe to be false figures supplied by the National Grid to the Planning Inspectorate. I raised that as a named day question, to be answered on the fourth of this month. That answer was finally provided on Monday of this week, many days late. There usually is a very good reason that Members table named day questions, as in this case, and it is that they want an answer on that named day. Mr Speaker, can you use your good offices to ensure that when Members table named day questions, they receive the courtesy of a proper and timely response?
