Question
To ask the hon. Member for Blaenau Gwent and Rhymney, representing the House of Commons Commission, what proportion of written parliamentary questions submitted to the Table Office have been carded in this session.
The total proportion of written parliamentary questions carded in this Session of Parliament because they do not comply with the rules of order is just over 19%. Most card queries are resolved quickly by a conversation with the tabling Member. The Table Office offers training to hon. Members and their staff on the rules of order and the drafting of orderly WPQs.
