HC Deb 05 December 1939 vol 355 c436
44. Mr. Glenvil Hall

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is now in a position to say when the wet canteen, established by the military authorities in the Baptist Sunday school premises at Milnsbridge, will be removed?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

This canteen was closed on Friday last.

Mr. Hall

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that that was the day after I put down the question?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

That shows how readily I respond to suggestions.

Mr. Rhys Davies

Will the right hon. Gentleman issue a general instruction that this should not be done anywhere else?
