LORD REAMy Lords, I beg leave to ask Her Majesty's Government the Question of which I have given Private Notice: whether they have any statement to make about the present situation on the Egyptian-Israeli border.
THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR COMMONWEALTH RELATIONS (THE EARL OF HOME)My Lords, I am in touch with my right honourable friend the Prime Minister, and I hope it will be possible to make a statement at about half-past four. I cannot tie myself to the actual time, but if it is convenient to your Lordships I could interrupt Business at about that time in order to make a statement.
