The question "Why not?" is an interesting one. I will make hon. Members opposite a present of this. It may be that some of them are busy making money outside. It may be that some of them are directors of companies. It may be that some of them are earning money in the courts. It may even be that some of them are earning money in Fleet Street. We are not concerned with why they will not be here.
