HC Deb 14 April 1920 vol 127 c1675
53. Lieut-Colonel POWNALL

asked the Lord Privy Seal when it is intended to introduce the Licensing Bill?

Mr. BONAR LAW

I cannot at present name a date.

Mr. W. THORNE

Is the Liquor Control Board going to remain in existence until the Licensing Bill passes through the House of Commons, or is it intended to dissolve it, because everyone is anxious that it should be dissolved?

Mr. BONAR LAW

No. I do not think that everyone is anxious.

Mr. THORNE

Well, I do.

Mr. BONAR LAW

This is not a subject which can be dealt with by question and answer. It was dealt with very fully by the Minister for Education in his speech the other day.
