§ 49. Mr. Manderasked the Prime Minister whether he will give particulars of the fundamental disagreement with reference to a policy concerning the United States which occurred between himself and the late Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs?
§ The Prime MinisterI can add nothing to the statements which I made in this House on 21st and 22nd February last.
§ Mr. ManderIs it not the case that statements from authoritative British sources have recently appeared in the Canadian and American Press to the effect stated in the question; and will not the Prime Minister now state to the House exactly what was the difference between himself and the late Foreign Secretary in regard to American policy?
§ The Prime MinisterI am not aware from what authoritative sources such information could come.
§ Mr. James GriffithsWould the Prime Minister place in the Library copies of the American Press, in order that Members may know the policy of the Government?
§ Mr. ManderI beg to give notice that I will raise this matter on the Adjournment at the earliest opportunity.
