Mr. NEWMANasked whether the Government are still desirous of dealing with the question of redistribution of seats during the lifetime of the present Parliament; and, if so, whether they will take advantage of the present lull in party political warfare and immediately set up a boundary commission with a view of effecting such redistribution on an agreed basis before the dissolution of Parliament?
§ The PRIME MINISTERThis is not, I think, an appropriate time for dealing with this or any other matter of domestic politics.
