§ THE PARLIAMENTARY UNDER-SECRETARY OF STATE FOR COMMONWEALTH RELATIONS AND FOR THE COLONIES (LORD BESWICK)My Lords, both in this House and in another place this Bill has had very full discussion, and on narrow points it has had a somewhat critical discussion. But I am sure that, now it has reached this stage, we all of us, without exception, should like to send our best wishes to Guyana for successful and happy celebrations on May 26, at which I hope to have the privilege of being present. I am sure we all look forward to a successful and satisfying future for this new country. I beg to move that this Bill do now pass.
§ Moved, That the Bill do now pass.—(Lord Beswick.)
§ On Question, Bill passed.
