DATE OF SESSION
Parliament To Assemble On
March 12
OPENING BY SIR CYRIL
NEWALL
An announcement that the session of Parliament was to open on Wednesday, March 12, was made yesterday by the Prime Minister, Mr. Fraser. The opening ceremony will be performed by the new Governor-General, Sir Cyril Newall, who is now on his way to New Zealand to take up his vice-regal duties. I Parliament is unlikely to remain long in session after the formal opening, and when the Address-in-Reply debate is finished an adjournment will probably be taken till the Financial Statement is ready for presentation. This will possibly bo about June. The programme for the session is to be discussed at a caucus of members of the Parliamentary Labour Party to be held ou February 18.
