§ MR. FINCH-HATTONasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether it is a fact that the Sanitary Inspector of Lower Egypt, who is an Englishman, has within the last few weeks been ordered to send in all his reports in French, instead of, as heretofore, in English; and, if so, for what reason; and, why the present time has been selected by Her Majesty's Government for making the change?
§ LORD EDMOND FITZMAURICEHer Majesty's Government are not aware that any order of the kind has been issued, and it is not a matter in which they are interested.
