HC Deb 26 January 1891 vol 349 cc1013-4

In. reply to Mr. O'NEILL,

MR. GOSCHEN

The Inland Revenue Commissioners have carefully inquired into the allegation that methylated spirits are used in Antrim and Derry for consumption, but have not been able to find that such practice prevails. If the hon. Member can supply me with any evidence as to the practice, or indicate the sources from which such evidence can be procured, the matter shall be followed up vigorously.
