Part of the debate – in the House of Commons am 12:00 am ar 2 Ebrill 1947.
So far as the last question is concerned, I can assure the right hon. Gentleman that there will not be such a request in six months' time because, as he will remember, the Motion that is now before the House would authorise the continuance of these powers for a period of 12 months. Of course, the total period during which this Proclamation is operative is the maximum of three years from the original date.
