Proceeding contribution from Alistair Burt (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 12 July 2005. It occurred during Opposition day on Licensing Act 2003.


Licensing Act 2003

The Minister is a bright chap. We are not dealing with a motion that condemns the entire Act in all its aspects. The point of the motion and that of the speech of my right hon. Friend the Member for Maidenhead (Mrs. May) was to pinpoint the failure of the Act and the possibility of repairing the damage that is being done to certain of the community because of that Act. If the Minister would get off 24-hour drinking and spend 20 minutes answering the questions perhaps we would have a better debate.
