Part of the debate – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 11 July 1952.
Will the hon. Gentleman accept this proposition? If there had been sufficient of his hon. Friends present this afternoon there would have been no difficulty at all. Will he bear in mind also that I did my best to ensure that as many of his hon. Friends as possible should be in the Chamber for the debate? I took every possible step at my disposal to bring about that result.
