It could work either way. Would need more context. - Reagen Jul 13, 09:10 8

  - never mind, I'll just blank out identifying info. here's the full graph. - loosilu Jul 13, 09:12 5
    - actually, probably ministers. seems to be about debate in-parliament, and the ministers - while still MPs - outrank other MPs. - mafic Jul 13, 09:16 2
      - this makes sense... -- nm - znufrii Jul 13, 09:23
      - that's my thought. thanks! -- nm - loosilu Jul 13, 09:18
    - Ministers, because it's the Ministers that have to do the defending of their budget allocations before a parliamentary committee -- nm - Roger More Jul 13, 09:16 1
      - intersting. anyone else? not that I don't trust you of course. :) -- nm - loosilu Jul 13, 09:17
  - If you need it quick, I have to leave soon. -- nm - Reagen Jul 13, 09:11
