In the last six months my Department transferred 93 Parliamentary Questions to other Departments out of a total of 601 received. All of these transfers occurred because the questions were more appropriate to other Ministerial Offices, which have primary responsibility in their relevant areas. In each case, agreement was reached with the relevant Department prior to any transfer taking place.
