So in MQs in the Commons, new questions may be asked for the first 3 days of the session, and the 4th day is reserved for only answers from the Minister, and follow-up questions (i.e. no new questions).

I was under the impression that the Lords did the same for Oral Questions, but I have just been informed that that is apparently not the case. In the Lords, there are 3 days for questions, and the 4th day is only for answers - no questions allowed, even follow-up questions.

What this effectively means is that the Leader of the House of Lords can answer all of their questions on the 4th day, and never have to deal with any follow-up questions, which feels a bit rubbish as follow-ups are important. Moreover, it's inconsistent with the Commons.

To me, it seems like a fairly simple fix to allow follow-ups on the final day. Can we do that please?
