§ 31. Mr. T. WILLIAMSasked the Home Secretary how many totalisators are in use at greyhound racing-tracks, licensed and unlicensed; and whether any steps have been taken to establish their legality or otherwise?
§ Sir H. SAMUELI have no information which would enable me to give an answer to the first part of the question. With regard to the second part, I would refer the hon. Member to the case of Everett and another v. Shand and others (1931, 2 K.B. 522), which is, so far as I am aware, the only case which has been taken in the High Court.
§ Mr. WILLIAMSDoes the right hon. Gentleman not think we ought to keep this information up-to-date, so that we can know what developments are taking place in this connection?
§ Sir H. SAMUELThat is not a matter, I think, for the Home Office.
