§ MR. SAMUEL EVANS (Glamorgan, Mid)I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board what is to become ultimately of the funds which will stand to the credit of a county whose County Council may refuse to expend them in paying compensation for the extinction of public house licences under the Local Taxation (Customs and Excise) Duties Bill?
§ *MR. RITCHIEThe fund will remain to the credit of the county, until Parliament has decided that it shall be otherwise employed.
§ MR. STOREY (Sunderland)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether, upon consideration, he is now willing to grant a Rsturn showing (a) the situation or address of each fully licensed house in the various licensing areas; (b) the name of the owner; (c) the name of the ostensible licensee?
§ *MR. W. H. SMITHSuch a Return could be furnished, but it would involve very great labour, great expense, and a considerable amount of trouble.
