I have already said in the House how warmly I welcomed Dr. Williams's efforts in trying to bring the parties together. I welcome also the efforts made by Sir Alexander Bustamante and by Mr. Barrow from Barbados. Since Dr. Williams's last effort, Mr. Burnham, in the Legislative Assembly, put forward a proposal for a Coalition Government. This was not accepted by Dr. Jagan, who put forward a counter-proposal, which has not been accepted by Mr. Burnham. That is the position.
