§ The following Question stood on the Order Paper in the name of Mr. ERSKINE:
§ 46. To ask the Prime Minister whether he can see his way to come to an equitable agreement with the Shell Company to 1970 safeguard the future oil supply of the Navy at a reasonable price, and utilise the £20,000,000 which the 5,000,000 shares would realise in rebuilding slum areas and in social betterments generally?
§ Mr. ERSKINEMay I, with your permission, Sir, withdraw this question, as, obviously, there is a mistake in the text?
