Will the Leader of the House bear in mind that we hope to have a foreign affairs Debate the week after next? He will remember that it was suggested when we were discussing Business last week.

Mr. Morrison

Yes, Sir. I am keeping that in mind, and hope to make arrangements for a date in the very near future.
