Part of the debate – in the House of Commons am 12:00 am ar 7 Ebrill 1948.
I will undertake that as soon as I receive a report it shall be published to the House as a White Paper, in the same way as the Commissioners' original proposals were presented. I will undertake that it shall be in sufficient time for consideration at any rate before the Report stage of the Bill. It may not be possible to have it available before the Committee stage, but on the assumption that the Committee stage is being taken first, and that it is available before the Report stage, I propose myself to put down Amendments to embody any suggestions made by the Commissioners when we reach the Report stage. I have suggested that the last day should be 24th April; as this is 7th April that is virtually giving 17 days' notice.
