QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

THE HON. E. P. PICKERING QUESTION WITHOUT NOTICE
The Hon. M. R. EGAN: My question without notice is directed to the Attorney General and Minister for Justice. Why was the Hon. E. P. Pickering summoned by Government leaders shortly before question time today? Is the Government putting pressure on the Hon. E. P. Pickering not to ask his intended question today?
The Hon. J. P. HANNAFORD: Obviously, the Leader of the Opposition is having some sort of flight of fancy again. I know of no meeting involving the Hon. E. P. Pickering. If there was one, the Leader of the Opposition should ask him whether there was supposed to be a question. I do not know what it is.
