(By Telesraph
WELLINGTON, This Day. Tho Leader of the Opposition. the Hon. Adam Hamilton, will niove a motion of no-confidence in the Government as an amendment to the Address-iii-Iteply on Thursday. Mr Hamilton eaid to-day that this step was jn accordance witn the National Party's attitude in opposing the Government's policy, "which wo believe to have reacted seriously to the detriment of the Dominion. The people expect us to defend their interests, and, although we have been left small in numbers, I can assure them that, in the iull sense of our responsibility, we in- 1 tend to exercise all the rights of the Opposition to examine fully all legislation introduced by the Government and its administration. ' ' Mr Hamilton, in conclusion, said that the Opposition was a solidly-united body and that, although their opponents had made many attempts to create an iinpression in the public mind that there was dissension in the ranks, this was obviously an attempt to detract attention from the troubles existing within the ranks of the Government.
