HC Deb 18 February 1919 vol 112 c739
55. Mr. DOYLE

asked the Prime Minister whether his attention has been called to a resolution passed by the delegates of the Northumberland Branch Club and Institute Union, Limited, held on 8th February, 1919, representing 75 clubs, with a membership of 33,750, expressing resentment at the continued enforcement of the restrictions imposed upon them as temporary war measures; and whether he can indicate an early date on which the pre-war status of such private social corporations shall be fully restored?

58. Mr. BARTLEY DENNISS

asked the Prime Minister whether the time has arrived when the Central Control Board (Liquor Traffic) should be abolished, or should no longer be independent of the control of Parliament?

Mr. BONAR LAW

I can add nothing to the answer which I gave to questions on this subject yesterday.

Viscount WOLMER

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that there is considerable unrest in the country owing to these restrictions?

Mr. BONAR LAW

I am fully aware, and I said yesterday that the subject is being considered by a Cabinet Committee, and will be decided as soon as possible.
