HC Deb 20 January 1913 vol 47 cc28-9
47. Dr. CHAPPLE

asked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the extra and ever-increasing burdens placed on the State by sickness and industrial inefficiency, he will so frame his promised Bill for the reform of the Upper House that the present over-representation of the liquor traffic in that Chamber may be corrected?

The PRIME MINISTER

As I have said before, in framing their proposals on this subject the Government will bear in mind all relevant material.
