HC Deb 03 February 1954 vol 523 cc367-8
Mr. Attlee

May I ask the Lord Privy Seal if he has any statement to make with regard to tomorrow's business?

The Lord Privy Seal (Mr. Harry Crookshank)

Yes, Sir. My right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer made a short statement yesterday on the recent Commonwealth Economic Conference, and the question of a debate arose. The Government consider that it would be for the general convenience for an early debate to take place, and accordingly we propose to devote tomorrow's sitting to this business. The debate will take place on the Motion for the Adjournment of the House. The business already announced for consideration tomorrow will be postponed.
