Humanitarian Crisis in Iraq: Statements. - Regulatory Reform: Motion.
In the area of pub licensing, much progress was made in the Intoxicating Liquor Act 2000. Furthermore, the Commission on Liquor Licensing published a report in 2001 recommending a further easing of restriction in the off-licence trade. In 2002, it published studies with recommendations focusing, in particular, on theatres and night clubs and on access to licensed premises. The commission published a further report today. I look forward, on the basis of its work. to seeing a more competitive bar trade emerging in the future.
