May I ask the Leader of the House whether he has any statement to make on Business for this week?

A rearrangement of Business becomes necessary following the Adjournment yesterday as a mark of respect to the memory of the late Earl Baldwin. After the consideration of the Requisitioned Land and War Works Bill today and the Committee stage of the Money Resolution, we shall ask the House to take the two Coast Protection Orders, Biscuits (Charges) Order and the Double Taxation Relief Orders which were to have been taken yesterday.

The Overseas Resources Development Bill which was also down for consideration yesterday will be postponed until after the Recess. The Business announced for the remainder of the week is unchanged.

May I ask the right hon. Gentleman whether the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs proposes to make a statement on the meeting of the Foreign Ministers this week, and, if so, on what day?

I follow the right hon. Gentleman's request and I will take it up. I will discuss it with the Foreign Secretary and convey the wish to him; but I cannot make any decisive statement at the moment.
