HC Deb 11 May 1933 vol 277 cc1698-9
55. Mr. T. WILLIAMS

asked the Lord Advocate the reason why, in the case of Albion Greyhounds (Glasgow), Limited, the totalisator in question is being allowed to be operated, whilst totalisators at other dog racecourses have been stopped?

The LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. Craigie Aitchison)

The operation of a totalisator has not yet been declared by the Scottish courts to be illegal. It is not the ease that totalisators at other dog racecourses in Scotland have been stopped.

Mr. WILLIAMS

Is there likely to be any further delay? Has any appeal been lodged?

The LORD ADVOCATE

There has been no delay of any kind. The case was down for hearing on 27th March, and was continued until 17th May to allow a minute of admissions to be adjusted upon which the question can be decided.
