HC Deb 10 December 1969 vol 793 cc439-40
Mr. Russell Johnston

I wish, with permission, to make a personal statement, Mr. Speaker.

The hon. Member for Gateshead, East (Mr. Conlan) has drawn my attention to the fact that during my speech on 8th December I referred to him in column 103 of the OFFICIAL REPORT. That was a mistake in constituency identification. I intended to refer to the hon. Member for Wallsend (Mr. Garrett).

I apologise for the error, which, I hope, has embarrassed neither hon. Gentleman. I am glad of the opportunity to have it corrected.
