PARLIAMENT
RESUMES TONIGHT
SECRET SITTING LIKELY
Parliament resumes tonight at 7.30 after being in recess since July 10. It is practically certain that a secret sitting will be held tonight; some formal business may. precede it. There is no clear indication of the possible length of the session. If the main intention is to make members conversant with the war situation and New Zealand's war effort, a few days would suffice. However, it is hoped to complete the preparation of the Departmental supplementary estimates, and if they appear the session may extend into next week.
Beyond the possibility of the introduction of an amendment to the Fair Rents legislation, no hint has been given of the introduction of any other Bills, and it has been definitely ascertained that there will be no measure making any further call upon the taxpayer.
