Mr Deputy Speaker (Mr Nigel Evans)
Order. I assume that everyone standing has been here for the opening statement and throughout.
Dr Caroline Johnson (Sleaford and North Hykeham) (Con)
I have listened carefully to the statement, the questions and the answers, and indeed to my constituents, many of whom are devastated to hear that there may have been parties and some of whom have suffered great hardship. I am glad that the Prime Minister has come here to apologise and to take on board the recommendations, but I am concerned that this is taking time and attention from key issues. This statement alone has been going on for nearly two hours. The Prime Minister has achieved great things with Brexit and vaccines, but can he assure this House, me and my constituents that this ongoing investigation and the reorganisation of No. 10 will not take his laser-like focus away from the issues that matter to us?
The Prime Minister
Yes, I can give my hon. Friend that absolute assurance.
