“FAR TOO LATE”
MR HOLLAND'S COMMENT (P.A.) WELLINGTON, Jan. 24. “It is good to have the announcement that Parliament is to meet, but the d&te fixed, February 22, is not scon enough," said the Leader of the Opposition, Mr S. G. Holland, to-day. “ Several burning questions of the hour have demanded the early summoning fo Parliament. When Parliament does meet that hour will be far past. “ Since I expressed the view in Auckland in December that the calling together of Parliament should not be unduly delayed,” Mr -Holland added, “ some urgent questions have arisen. The Opposition has pressed for an early assembly of Parliament, but the Government has adhered approximately to the date mentioned shortly after the general election. It is far too late.”
