§ 48. Mr. MANDERasked the Prime Minister whether the Government proposes to provide facilities this Session for the further discussion of the Channel Tunnel?
§ The PRIME MINISTERNo, Sir, this question was fully discussed last June, the decision being left to a free vote of the House.
§ Mr. MANDERDoes that mean that there will be no further opportunity of discussing this question during the present Parliament for the next three and a-half years?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI am not sure about the three and a-half years, but there is no reason why it should not be discussed in this Parliament, because there are plenty of opportunities for balloting Motions.
