HC Deb 08 July 1915 vol 73 cc536-7
14. Mr. WATT

asked the Lord Advocate whether he has exercised any pressure, or proposes to do so, on the town council of Dunblane to institute a Police Court in that burgh, in view of the fact that it is the only burgh of that standing in West Perthshire that has not such a Court, and that it would have the effect of reducing the work for a Procurator-fiscal in that neighbourhood?

The LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. Munro)

The answer is in the negative. I am not aware that I have any authority to exercise pressure in the direction desired by my hon. and learned Friend.
