I have issued the following statement to Australian press this
afternoon begins-
'The report which has appeared in certain newspapers this morning
of a projected meeting of Dominion Prime Ministers in London next
year is due to a misunderstanding of something said by me
yesterday.

When asked whether I would be the Minister to go to London I said
"No", but indicated unofficially in answer to a question that at a
later stage of the war the precedent established in the last war
when Dominion Prime Ministers attended in London might conceivably
be followed.

I might add that no arrangement, tentative or otherwise, has been
made for me to go to London. I have plenty to do here.' (Statement
ends).
