I beg to ask leave to move the Adjournment of the House for the purpose of discussing a definite matter of urgent public importance, namely, "the attempt to interfere with the freedom of the Press by issuing a statement to selected newspapers as official information, at the same time requiring the source of the information to be kept secret."

The pleasure of the House having been signified, the Motion stood over, under Standing Order No. 10, until a Quarter past Eight o'C'lock this evening.
