havick,

What does it mean exactly when they ask 'would you like to take these questions on notice", and "in camera"?
"on notice" means you don't have to answer them straight away but can provide answers at a later date................."in camera" means that you can provide answers without the media/public being present.

The first is often used if the questions have not been anticipated and the person required to answer does not have the information to hand. The second is often used where the answers may be revealing commercial information or information that could be of benefit to the persons's/company's opponents.
