Yes, Sir. I am glad to announce that His Majesty's Government are largely in agreement with the recommendations of the Committee and with the principles underlying them. A White Paper setting out the Government's decision on each of the recommendations is being published this evening. Where a recommendation can be put into effect by administrative action or by the amendment of regulations, this is, being done forthwith. I should like to take this opportunity of expressing my gratitude to Lord Gorell and his colleagues for their most valuable report.
