HC Deb 05 August 1919 vol 119 c169
66. Colonel GRETTON

asked the Prime Minister when the proposals of the Government for the abolition of the Central Control Board (Liquor Traffic) and setting up a Commission in its place will be laid before Parliament; and will these proposals involve legislation?

Mr. BONAR LAW

I regret that I am not yet in a position to make any statement. The answer to the last part of the question is in the affirmative.

Sir S. HOARE

Can my right hon. Friend say when he will introduce the Bill of which he spoke?

Mr. BONAR LAW

We do not know that it will be possible to introduce it before the Recess.
