The question of a constitutional review is under consideration at present. I would like to discuss the matter with the Leader of the Opposition in the light of the exchanges between us on this issue at col. 1034 of the Official Report of 31 March last.

That is under consideration and could depend on the outcome of any discussions that I might hold with the Leader of the Opposition on the subject.
