Mr. Arthur Lewis, to raise a point of order.

Thank you for calling me, Mr. Speaker. I had a word with you because I wanted to explain to the House that inadvertently in the last debate I made charges and allegations against the right hon. Gentleman which I subsequently found were not in accordance with the facts. [HON. MEMBERS: "Which right hon. Gentleman?"] It happened to be the Prime Minister.

In my usual way of admitting when I am wrong, Mr. Speaker, I asked the Minister to give way and he promised faithfully that he would, but he never did. Therefore, I want it now to go on record that if information which was supplied to me and which I gave to the House in all good faith was incorrect, as I understand it is, I withdraw it and apologise to the right hon. Gentleman—who happens to be the Prime Minister.

This all seems to be a little internecine.
