HC Deb 25 July 1929 vol 230 c1466
38. Mr. AYLES

asked the Home Secretary whether he will include in the terms of reference of the Royal Commission on the drink traffic the question of the control of liquor importation into the Colonies?

Mr. CLYNES

No, Sir. This question would be quite outside the scope of the contemplated inquiry.

Viscountess ASTOR

Will the right hon. Gentleman set up some committee of inquiry into this really scandalous blot on the Empire?

Mr. CLYNES

I can only at the moment answer the question on the Paper.
