HC Deb 21 July 1903 vol 125 cc1319-20
SIR WILFRID LAWSON (Cornwall, Camborne)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether it is his intention before the House rises to make a statement as to the intentions of the Government with regard to the licensing question; and, if so, whether he is able to inform the House when such statement will be made.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

Yes, sir, I shall probably have to say something on this subject before the close of the session, but I cannot give any pledge as to the date when the statement will be made.
