HC Deb 27 March 1922 vol 152 cc979-80W
Sir W. de FRECE

asked the Home Secretary whether, on the introduction of summer time, he will, to suit public convenience on Sundays, when excursions are made into the country, consider the automatic alteration of the hours of closing of licensed places of refreshment, so that they may open in the evenings one hour later and close one hour later, thereby permitting the community to take full advantage of the long evenings without any need for hurrying home to obtain their necessary refreshment?

Mr. SHORTT

I have no power to deal with this matter.
