HC Deb 28 May 1946 vol 423 c997
Mr. Churchill

In view of the necessity for arranging Business for Friday, can the Leader of the House say definitely whether he will be able to make a statement on food tomorrow?

The Lord President of the Council (Mr. Herbert Morrison)

It is impossible to make a statement on food today, because I have not yet cleared with Washington, but I am reasonably confident that I shall be able to make a statement tomorrow.

Mr. Churchill

That still leaves the settlement of the question whether we are to have a Debate until we have had the right hon. Gentleman's statement tomorrow.

Mr. Morrison

I quite understand that. I cannot be quite sure, but I am reasonably confident that I shall be able to make a statement tomorrow.
