HC Deb 26 November 1931 vol 260 cc491-2
43. Mr. LIDDALL

asked the Home Secretary if he is aware of the inconvenience to bona fide travellers wishing to obtain alcoholic beverages during the present hours when the sale of such beverages is not permitted; and will he at once take steps to reinstate the privileges formerly granted to bona fide travellers?

Sir H. SAMUEL

Legislation would be necessary in order to effect the purpose which the hon. Member has in view, and before considering this or other proposals relating to the Licensing Laws, the Government must await the forthcoming report of the Royal Commission on Licensing.
