THE LICENSING BILL.
Shoals of Amendments.
(OCB PARLIAMENTARY REPORTER.)
Wellington, This Day.
Quito a shoal of amendments are threatened when the Liquor Bill comes down, and the Premier’s expressed wish that nothing of a debatable character should bo raised has been cruelly disregarded. Mr Ell will seek to insert a clause doing away with private bars and making the definition 11 bar ” or “ public bar,” any place wherein the public may enter and purchase liquor. Mr Fowlds treats with the “ tied house ” question, and proposed to have it enacted that “ In every ease where liquor or goods are supplied to a licensee, the price charged shall bo not more than ten per cent above the fair market price, and any turn paid in excess may bo recovered by the licensee as a debt by the person to whom it was paid.”
