§ MR. TRITTON (Lambeth, Norwood)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether Her Majesty's Government have considered the Report of the Royal Commission on Liquor Licensing Laws; and whether they intend next session to introduce legislation in accordance with, or to give effect to, any of the recommendations contained in either of the two parts of the Report.
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. A. J. BALFOUR, Manchester, E.)As regards this question, I think it premature to make any statement with 210 regard to legislation which cannot take effect, of course, during the present, session.
