§ Sir W. de FRECEasked the Home Secretary whether, in view of the fact that it would be for the convenience of visitors that certain health and seaside resorts should have a seasonal extension 2493W of the extra half-hour of opening of licensed houses for a fixed period only of their maximum activities, he will consider whether it is possible to modify the law in the direction of introducing such seasonal licences; and whether, in any event, he will consider the point in connection with any further amendment of the Licensing Acts?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSNo change of this sort is possible without legislation. I have duly noted the point for consideration, if opportunity arise.
