HC Deb 05 June 1924 vol 174 c1494W
Mr. SULLIVAN

asked the Secretary for Scotland if he will make inquiry into the action of the licensing bench in refusing the licence to the Millerston Inn, Millerston, North Lanark, although no complaint was made against the management of the public-house?

Mr. ADAMSON

I have no power to interfere with the discretion of a Licensing Court in the matter of granting or refusing certificates, and in these circumstances I do not think that an inquiry by me would serve any useful purpose.
