HC Deb 06 February 1893 vol 8 c552
MR. HOWELL

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether his attention has been called to the case of dog fighting, reported in the newspapers of Friday, February 3rd, which was brought before the Worship Street Police Court; and whether some further steps will be taken to deprive the landlord of the house and the house itself of the licence, for such cruelty to animals?

MR. ASQUITH

I have instructed the police to bring the matter before the Licensing Justices when application is made for the renewal of this man's licence.
