LICENSING BILL
ALLIANCE RESOLUTIONS ASTONISHED AT PREMIER’S ACTION. A REMINDER EOR MR. COATES. (Pet Press Association). Wellington, Nov. 17. The standing committee* of the New Zealand Alliance resolved: (a) Expressing gratification at the emphatic votes recorded by the House of Representatives against the proposed extension of time between polls, in favour of a two-issue ballot paper, and in support of a simple majority. (b) Declaring astonishment that the Prime Minister should have moved to report progress and so have imperilled the passage of the bill after the House had so plainly declared its will.
(c) Respectfully reminding the Prime Minister of his repeated assurance that members would be free to deal with the bill on its merits and regardless of party ties, and urging that he do nothing to obstruct the passage of the bill. [A full report of the proceedings in the House of Representatives on the above bill will be found on page B].
