Lieut.-Colonel SPENDER CLAYasked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the amount of spirits in bond, he will remove the present restrictions on Withdrawals of spirits from bond at an early date (the said Order being a War restriction), and thus remove the present serious dissatisfaction of the public arising from the continued shortage of spirits?
§ Mr. McCURDYI have been asked to reply. The question of modifying the present restrictions on the withdrawal of spirits from bond is now being considered.
