HC Deb 07 July 1931 vol 254 c1904
44. Major WOOD

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he has received the report of the Royal Commission appointed to investigate the question of the sale and supply of excisable liquor in Scotland; if so, when the report was received by him; and when it will be published?

Mr. WESTWOOD

The report of the Royal Commission on Licensing (Scotland) reached my right hon. Friend last month and is now in the hands of the printers. I understand that it will be ready for issue at an early date.

Major WOOD

Can the hon. Member say what has caused the delay in publication?

Mr. WESTWOOD

All that I can say is that it is expected that it will be issued before the House rises.
