Mr. Roger King

To ask the Lord President of the Council whether he will consider taking steps to include a note of the total number of oral questions submitted to any one Department at the foot of the questions listed on the Order Paper.

I have no plans to do so. But if my hon. Friend wishes to pursue the matter he might care to raise it with the Procedure Committee which may shortly begin an inquiry into all aspects of parliamentary questions.
