§ 46. Mr. Hector Hughesasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will give details to the latest convenient date of the working and results of the implementation of the recommendations of the Guest Committee, Command Paper No. 2021, on 88W the construction of the licensing courts in Scotland and other related licensing matters.
§ Mr. RossAs I said in reply to a Question by the hon. Member for Edinburgh, South (Mr. Clark Hutchison) on 28th January last I do not propose legislation at present on the Report's recommendations on licensing courts and courts of appeal. The other main recommendation requiring legislation was effectually implemented in the Licensing (Certificates in Suspense) (Scotland) Act, 1969. This Act has given rise to no difficulties in operation.—[Vol. 776, c.318.]
