HL Deb 15 December 1959 vol 220 cc396-7
THE EARL OF HOME

My Lords, with the permission of the House, I will now give to your Lordships the text of a statement which has just been made by my right honourable friend the Prime Minister in another place. It is as follows:

"I have been in communication with the Prime Ministers of the other Commonwealth countries and we have now arranged to hold a meeting in London, beginning on the 3rd May, 1960. I feel sure that the House will join with me in welcoming this event to which we all attach the greatest importance."

VISCOUNT ALEXANDER OF HILLSBOROUGH

My Lords, I am sure that we on these Benches all agree with that

LORD REA

And, I am sure, my Lords, that all the rest of us agree with it also.
