§ 47. Mr. REMERasked the Prime Minister, if, now that the Southborough Committee has reported, he can state the Government's policy with reference to an alteration of the licensing laws?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSI have been asked to reply. The Government have not yet had an opportunity to consider the Report of the Southborough Committee, which has only recently been received, and accordingly I am not as yet in a position to make any statement on this subject.
§ Mr. REMERIf I put a question down after Whitsuntide, will the right hon. Gentleman be able to give me an answer?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSI shall be much more likely to be able to answer the hon. Member's question then than to-day.
Viscountess ASTORIs it not true that the Southborough Committee sat for two years and recommended nothing of any use?
