§ Mr. RAFFANasked the Home Secretary the number of convictions for drunkenness in the city of Carlisle during the months January to May, inclusive, for the years 1918, 1919, 1920, and 1921?
§ Mr. SHORTTThe figures are as follow:
kept for sale in bottle, and consequently such beverages as those referred to in the question, if sold in open vessels, are exempt. It has been considered to be inexpedient on various grounds to extend the scope of the duty to include beverages not sold or kept for sale in closed receptacles.
