My hon. and right hon. Friends and myself on this side of the House would like to associate ourselves with the thanks that the right hon. Gentleman has expressed. These gifts are characteristic of the generosity and understanding which Australia and New Zealand have at all times shown in their relations with us. We know that they too have their burdens, and we value all the more the thankfulness and generosity Which have actuated them in making these gifts.
