On a popular TV game show, the game board provides the answer and the contestants have to come up with the question. The game board contains five questions in each of six categories; and the three contestants compete against each other to be the first to "buzz in" to provide the question. While the answers in this book all fall into one category, "American Institute of Parliamentarians Standard Code of Parliamentary Procedure," and this list of answers and questions doesn't provide an electronic "buzz in" system, parliamentarians can now join in the fun and try their hand at finding the correct question to parliamentary answers. While this book can't provide you with buzzers and a big answer board, the book does contain lots of answers (along with the "correct" question). The answers and questions can be grouped for playing games like the television show. Another way to use the answers is to transfer them to cards, shuffle the cards, and ask the answers in whatever order they are drawn from the shuffled deck. Whatever way you choose, make it fun! So, contestants, hands on your buzzers and get ready for a fast and fun session of: Here is the Answer! What is the Question?

In October 2010 the Committee in response to a report by its predecessor committee began a trial exercise in monitoring unsatisfactory and late answers to written Parliamentary questions. With just over 50 complaints from Members in response to the exercise of which half were followed up. This resulted in answers for Members on a number of occasions in circumstances where they would otherwise have found difficult or impossible to follow up on an inadequate response. The exercise will now come to an end and be put on a more permanent footing.In consideration of a memorandum from the Leader of the House providing statistics on the time taken to respond to WPQs in 2010-12, the committee has sought explanations from Ministers in charge of poorly performing departments for the level of performance in the memorandum and what steps are being taken to improve these levels. The Department for Education had a particularly poor performance and evidence was taken from the Parliamentary Under Secretary and a senior official in the Department which the Committee found unsatisfactory with and so a follow up session with the Permanent Secretary and Secretary of State was undertaken. The Committee will continue its interest in the answering performance of this Department and hold it to further account should its performance not improve markedly.
