HC Deb 17 March 1986 vol 94 c39W
Mr. Henderson

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he has made any study of the operation of the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982 with particular reference to the way in which its licensing provisions have been implemented; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Ancram

The central research unit of the Scottish Office has carried out a survey of licensing under the 1982 Act, and its report will be published later this year. The report will provide a basis for consulting the various interests concerned, as part of a review which my right hon. and learned Friend is putting in hand of the operation of the licensing provisions of the Act.
