HC Deb 09 February 1880 vol 250 cc267-8
SIR WILFEID LAWSON

asked Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, Whether Her Majesty's Government propose to take steps for carrying out any of the recommendations made by the Lords Select Committee on Intemperance?

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER

Sir, I do not think it is at all probable that it will be in the power of the Government this Session to take any steps for carrying out the recommendations made by the Lords Select Committee on Intemperance.
