HC Deb 09 May 1933 vol 277 c1357
34. Mr. LECKIE

asked the Home Secretary whether, in view of the withdrawal of the Dog Racing (Local Option) Bill, he intends to introduce a Bill on behalf of the Government to deal with this question?

Sir J. GILM0UR

There is no prospect of this subject being considered for inclusion in this Session's programme of legislation.

Captain ARTHUR EVANS

In view of the great uncertainty which exists throughout the country on this question, and its effect on unemployment, will the Government announce their policy at the earliest possible moment after having examined the Report of the Royal Commission?

Sir J. GILMOUR

Oh, yes, Sir.
