§ MR. COXsaid, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Whether he will next Session bring in a Bill making it compulsory on Magistrates who, sitting in Petty Sessions, refused an application for a "Gladstone" Wine Licence, to state the grounds of their refusal, so that their decision may be appealed from to the Quarter Sessions?
§ SIR GEORGE GREYsaid, in reply, that the reasons were now stated for refusing such an application; and the only question was, whether an appeal should be granted on the occasion of a first application. He had communicated with his right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer upon the subject, and he thought it right that such an appeal should be allowed.
