§ 66. Mr. GROVESasked the Home Secretary if, in view of the omission of any recommendation by the Royal Commission on Lotteries and Betting concerning Sunday greyhound racing, it is to be taken as the policy of his Department to give a general approval to this practice?
§ Sir J. GILMOURAs I stated in reply to a question in this House on "the 20th instant, the question of Sunday greyhound racing will not be overlooked, but will be considered in connection with the recommendations of the Royal Commission on Lotteries and Betting. I would remind the hon. Member that, in paragraph 273 of their report, the Royal Commission on Lotteries and Betting recommended that the local authority should be required to fix two week days on which betting facilities might normally be provided at licensed courses in its area.
