HC Deb 16 November 1908 vol 196 cc892-3
MR. STUART WORTLEY (Sheffield, Hallam)

I beg to ask the Prime Minister when he proposes to move the re-committal of the Licensing Bill in order to carry out his undertaking to move the omission of subsection 2 of the new clause (Sale of intoxicating liquor with meals on Sundays, etc.).

MR. ASQUITH

As I said on Friday, there is no intention of re-committing the Bill for this purpose, which can be accomplished elsewhere.

MR. JAMES HOPE (Sheffield, Central)

Will it make any difference to the law whether the subsection is struck out or not?

MR. ASQUITH

Well, I think not.
