I have made no allegation against the Burney group. We have been in negotiation, and we have discussed the finance of the matter and the technicalities of the matter with various experts. I say that I was so gravely concerned with what I saw when my attention was drawn to this publication in the "Times" of this morning, that I asked whether steps had been taken to ascertain where the leakage came from, and the information I had was that it did not come from the Air Ministry or from our side, and that therefore it must have come from one or other of the persons with whom we have consulted in confidence about the scheme.
