May I ask the Prime Minister whether he has any statement to make about to-morrow's business?

After going formally into Committee of Supply the Adjournment of the House will be moved and a Debate will take place on the recent developments in the conduct of the war.

The Debate on the conduct of the Economic War originally arranged for to-morrow will be postponed. We do not propose that the Debate to-morrow shall take place in Secret Session.

In the opinion of the Opposition, it is desirable that there should be a Debate in public to-morrow, because the whole country should know whatever facts can be given, and in these circumstances we entirely acquiesce in the postponement of the suggested Secret Session, which might take place at a later time.
