Sir T. Moore

On a point of Order, Mr. Speaker. In view of the fact that the hon, Gentleman has thought it proper to give such a full and complete answer to Question No. 89, would he not also adopt the same attitude and the same action in regard to Question No. 75, which relates to General Mihailovitch?

Mr. Speaker

My permission had been asked first and on this other Question it has not been asked.

Sir T. Moore

I beg your pardon, Mr. Speaker. May I ask your permission now?

Mr. Speaker

No, it is too late.
