Synopsis
Excerpt from A Practical Guide to the Licensing Act, 1904: And the Rules Made by the Home Secretary Under the Act, Together With the Act, Rules and Forms, and Parliamentary Returns
It was certainly the intention of the legislature that the grounds inserted in Section 1 of the new Act should be interpreted in a broad and popular sense. The debates in Committee of the two Houses of Parliament abundantly prove this, but they have no authority in a court of law as a guide to the meaning of a statute.
