Polonius is one of those people who, once he gets an idea, there's no shifting it. He has formed the idea that Hamlet is mad for Ophelia's love, and suggests that this can be proven by spying on the two of them from a concealed place. Claudius is not persuaded at all by this: "Love? His affections do not that way tend." But Polonius has a new idea (which is basically the same as the old one) that his ideas may be proven by spying on Hamlet's conversation with Gertrude from a concealed place. Claudius just wants to get rid of him by sending him to England.
Polonius therefore views the conversation with Gertrude as his last chance to prove his theory. "If she find him not, to England send him, or confine him where your wisdom best may think."
