Members to receive answers more quickly by removing the need for the delivery of printed
versions.</p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p><p>One of the potential benefits
of the new system is for the reporting of the timeliness of answers to Parliamentary
Questions to be delivered with greater consistency and accuracy across all answering
bodies.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>It will be for the Procedure Committee to evaluate
the effectiveness of the new system in improving performance when it assesses the
evidence following the end of the session.</p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>
