On a point of order, Presiding Officer. Last year I lodged a question, which did not make it into the business bulletin. It asked whether you could give guarantees to MSPs on the security of our e-mails and internal communications. I have not yet received a reply, although we had a meeting with you and the chief executive of the Parliament at which you said that you would write back to me. I have as yet received no reply. Can you tell me when I will receive a reply?
I will look into that. I recall the issue and I am surprised that you have not had a reply.
On a second point of order. You were going to look into whether the Presiding Officer should be required to answer oral questions—the standing orders of the Parliament say that that can happen. You have failed to reply to me on that question, too.
I can assure you that the matter is under active consideration by the Procedures Committee.
On a point of order. I should have declared an interest before my supplementary to Jamie Stone's question. May I do so now?
That is all right, thank you.
