§ Mr. SCRYMGEOURMay I ask the right hon. Gentleman if some little time 1762 could be given to the consideration of a Motion which stands on the Order Paper in my name, regarding the exportation of intoxicating liquors to the United States of America:
That this House, viewing with concern the efforts made as a matter of business enterprise in this country to facilitate clandestine contracts for exportation of intoxicating liquors to the United States of America, calls upon the Government to introduce legislation in support of their treaty obligations with the United States of America by making all such contracts in every respect illegal.
§ The PRIME MINISTERI am afraid that I cannot hold out any hope that there will be time for Motions, in the short period remaining between now and Prorogation.
§ Mr. SCRYMGEOURAs this matter is of particular consequence to the House of Commons and to the party that the right hon. Gentleman represents, I think that special consideration should be given to it.
§ Mr. KIRKWOODBecause you support the brewers!
