HC Deb 15 March 1888 vol 323 c1292
MR. T. P. O'CONNOR (Liverpool, Scotland)

asked the President of the Local Government Board, Whether complaints have reached him that marriages in Roman Catholic churches in the neighbourhood of Victoria Docks have frequently had to be postponed, owing to the non-arrival of the Registrar, Mr. Frederick Mulley, Leytonstone Union, Stratford, E?

THE PRESIDENT (Mr. RITCHIE) (Tower Hamlets, St. George's)

I have not received any complaints in the matter referred to in the Question, and the Registrar General informs me that no such complaints have reached him. Leytonstone is in the West Ham Union and Registration District. There is no registration officer in that district named Frederick Mulley. Mr. John Mulley is the Deputy Superintendent Registrar; but the Registrar General states that he is never required to be present officially at marriages in Roman Catholic churches.
