§ MR. COHEN (Islington, E.)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether, in the promised Return of the Licences refused at the last Brewster Sessions, he will add a statement showing the number of years during which the licence had been held by the respective licensees.
§ * THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. AKERS DOUGLAS,) Kent, St. Augustine'sNo, Sir; to adopt the hon. Member's suggestion would, even if possible, involve great and undesirable delay in the issue of the Return. Large numbers of answers to the Return, as ordered by the House, have already come in; and the matter is being prepared for publication at the earliest moment.
