§ Lieut.-Colonel POWNALLasked the Minister of Food whether, having regard to the fact that the restrictions on clearances of spirits have now been removed, the question of permitting retailers to supply smaller quantities of spirits than one reputed quart is under consideration; and, if so, how soon he anticipates being in a position to make an announcement?
§ Mr. McCURDYThe sale of spirits for off consumption in smaller quantities than one reputed quart is controlled by the Regulations of the Central Control Board on the Liquor Traffic, and is not one for the Food Controller. I cannot, therefore, make any announcement on the subject.
