HC Deb 12 July 1926 vol 198 c39
63. Captain HOWARD

asked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that the State Management Scheme (Liquor Control) Authorities have erected buildings at the Solway Hotel, Silloth, which transgress certain by-laws of the local urban district council; that these buildings have been reported upon as dangerous by the local surveyor, as being constructed of timber on top of an existing timber building, and that his officers have declined to meet the wishes of the local urban district council or in any way conform to its by-laws; and whether such action received his sanction?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

This matter is still under discussion with the local authority, and I should prefer not to make any further statement upon it at present.
