A considerable amount of criticism was levelled at the speech, but generally it was commended by the speakers, among whem were Messrs Walsh, Young, Trinnear, Martin Vause, Howarth and Callaghan. The Prims Minister, in replying, stated the one struck by the speech would be maintained in the subsequent legislation introduced and promised measures for debate at an early date.
