HL Deb 25 July 1939 vol 114 c516

6.20 p.m.

VISCOUNT ELIBANK

My Lords, may I state that the reason why I am postponing till Monday my Motion relating to the Report of the Rhodesia-Nyasaland Royal Commission is that a number of your Lordships wish to take part in this debate, and there was a strong feeling amongst them that if we started the debate at this hour we should not have a proper opportunity for considering it? I therefore beg leave to postpone my Motion until Monday.
