Points of Order
Summary
In the House of Commons, a minister has raised a point of order, welcoming the Deputy Speaker to their position. The minister then expressed concern that they had not been informed of two recent ministerial visits by government members, despite having spoken independently to the right honorable member for Rawmarsh and Conisbrough and the honorable member for Plymouth Sutton and Devonport, both of whom assured the minister that the lack of notification was an error in the process. The minister emphasized the importance of the Treasury Bench and the new government following the normal protocols to ensure that all members of the House are duly informed of such visits. The minister's statement underscores the need for transparency and proper communication between the government and all members of Parliament, regardless of their political affiliation, in order to maintain the integrity of the democratic process.
