HC Deb 27 June 1916 vol 83 c724
43. Mr. MacCALLUM SCOTT

asked the Secretary for Scotland whether he has received and submitted to His Majesty's Government a resolution passed by the corporation of the city of Glasgow urging that the liquor traffic be prohibited in Scotland during the continuation of the War, and that equitable provision be made for those who are affected thereby; and whether the Government proposes to take any action in this respect?

The SECRETARY for SCOTLAND (Mr. McKinnon Wood)

I have received a copy of the resolution referred to, which I understand has also been sent to other members of the Government. I am not in a position to make any statement in answer to the last part of the question.
