The right hon. Gentleman's Question dealt with the border. This is a different matter. Certain approaches have been made, but I do not wish to encourage too high hopes that these will lead to an immediate cessation of the hostilities. Naturally, not only we but the Federal Government, who are primarily concerned in this matter, are anxious to encourage any steps which would lead to the ending of this trouble.
