HC Deb 07 July 1904 vol 137 c959
SIR ALBERT ROLLIT (Islington, S.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he has arrived at any determination as to omitting in Clause 7, Sub-section (2), of the Licensing Bill, the proviso that the recorder of a county borough, having a separate Court of quarter sessions, must be a member and chairman of any committee of the justices.

* THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. AKERS-DOUGLAS, Kent, St. Augustine's)

Yes, Sir; I propose to omit from the Bill the provision as to the recorder of a county borough, to which my hon. friend refers.
