HC Deb 08 February 1996 vol 271 c308W
Mr. Amess

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what representations he has received following recent relaxation on the licensing laws; and how many have been in favour of the recent changes. [13891]

Mr. Kirkhope

The Licensing (Sunday Hours) Act 1995, which came into effect on 6 August 1995, relaxed restrictions on the opening hours of licensed premises on Sundays and Good Friday. Since then we have received 14 letters on the subject of Sunday hours, two of which were in favour of this relaxation.
