I have laid your letter of the 30th. December,

J

-

1910, before the Governor, who is of opinion an opinion in which

the Attorney-General entirely concurs that since notices have

already been issued to the four hotels named in the margin that Cosmopolitan Hotel. their publican's Licences will not be renewed after

the 30th. November, 1915, a withdrawal of that

notice except in the most guarded terms, would lead

the licensees to infer that their licences would

certainly be granted again after 1915.

His Excellency considers that it would be in-

-advisable to thus forecast the future and possibly to create

additional claims for compensation should the Licensing Board of

that day, or the Public House Trust if constituted by that date,

come to a different conclusion as to the retention of publicans licences by these Hotels. It would indeed seem that if the pro-

-posed Trust is to be a complete success it should eventually

(though not necessarily at first) have a monopoly of publican's

licences. His Excellency therefore desires me to suggest to the

Board, either that the notices should not be withdrawn,or that the

Licensees should be notified in the terms of the attached letter

drafted by the Attorney-General. The position which will exist

five years hence will thus be unprejudiced.

I have etc.,

(Sd.) C. Clementi,

(in the absence of the Colonial

Secretary.)

The Secretary,

Licensing Board.
