I am sure that the whole House will be grateful for your Ruling, Mr. Speaker. May I ask you one question in connection with it?

You have said that Questions are a joint responsibility of the Government and that it is a matter for the Government which Minister replies. In that case, would it be in order to put down a Question addressed simply to the Government, without specifying any Minister, leaving it to the Government to decide who should reply to it?
