HC Deb 03 February 1902 vol 102 cc201-2
MR. O'SHAUGHNESSY

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if the Licensing Bill, introduced by him on Thursday last, will apply to Ireland, if passed into law.

MR. JESSE COLLINGS

The Bill, as drafted, applies only to England and Wales.

MR. SHAUGHNESSY

Can the right hon. Gentleman see his way to introduce a Temperance Bill for Ireland, considering the strenght of public feeling in favour of it?

[No answer was returned.]
