HC Deb 17 March 1965 vol 708 cc274-5W
Sir M. Galpern

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if, in view of the existence of substantial numbers of public house certificates in suspense, in which there is considerable trafficking, and the fact that, when application is made by the holder of a suspense certificate for removal of the certificate from the premises specified therein to other premises within the licensing court's area, no objections can be lodged as in the case of an application for a new certificate, he will seek to amend the Licensing (Scotland) Act 1959, with a view to the abolition of licences in suspense.

Mr. Ross

I am aware that there is about this subject, but I have no proposals at present for amending the Licensing (Scotland) Acts.
