That is okay. There was a commitment to have a debate on Burma next Tuesday. I expected to see the motion on the Order Paper today. Can we expect to see it tomorrow?

Some who are against the European treaty might consider an aspect of European foreign policy with which they might agree. Individuals such as I, who support the treaty, would be very opposed to President Sarkozy and all he stands for, yet I must stand back and admire the stand he has taken recently on China and Burma and on other matters. We need straight talking in European diplomacy and I look forward to discussing this in more detail next Tuesday when we have a debate on it. Will the Leader confirm that such a debate will take place, such that we can discuss these issues and related matters?
