HC Deb 07 June 1920 vol 130 cc7-8
9. Captain BOWYER

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he can yet make any statement with regard to the abolition of the Central Control Board (Liquor Traffic); whether he is aware that the Prime Minister gave a promise in 1918 that restrictions should be done away with at an early date; that in July, 1919, the early dissolution of the Board was promised; whether he will state what steps will be taken in the matter and how soon the abolition of the Board may be expected; and whether he will, as a first instalment, remove entirely the restrictions on working men's, as well as on all other, clubs?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

I would suggest that my hon. and gallant Friend should address this question to the Leader of the House.
