HC Deb 05 December 1922 vol 159 c1524W
Major BIRCHALL

asked the Home Secretary what is the closing hour on Sunday for a shop which sells sweets and tobacco?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

The answer to this question depends on whether the Order which was continued in force by the Shops (Early Closing) Act, 1920, applies to Sundays. This point is, I am informed, the subject of an appeal in the High Court, and I cannot anticipate the Court's decision.
