HC Deb 11 May 1914 vol 62 cc705-6
23. Mr. CATHCART WASON

asked the Secretary for Scotland if he has yet received the opinion of the returning officer for Orkney and Shetland as to whether it would be practicable and desirable to hold the election in those counties on one day, as proposed by the Bill now before the House, instead of two days, which have hitherto been found necessary?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

The reply to my hon. Friend's question is in the negative.
