§ The LORD PRIVY SEAL (Mr. Eden)I cannot at present add anything to the statements made in the course of the debates on the 22nd May and on Friday last.
§ Mr. MANDERIf I put down a question in two or three weeks' time, will my right hon. Friend be able to make some communication then?
§ Mr. EDENI cannot say. As the House knows, we are in negotiation, and I think we must be allowed to carry that negotiation through.
