HC Deb 14 April 1890 vol 343 c453
MR. BRADLAUGH

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether the Return "Vaccination Acts (persons imprisoned, &c.)"is incomplete, and, if so, in what respect; and if he can state the reasons for such incompleteness; whether he can inform the House why no mention is made of persons imprisoned or fined at Edmonton Petty Sessions; and why the County of Middlesex is entirely omitted?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. MATTHEWS,) Birmingham, E.

Yes, Sir; this Return is incomplete in so far as by inadvertence Returns from the Petty Sessional Courts of Middlesex as well as from the Metropolitan Police Cour's is not included. The County of Middlesex are not, however, entirely omitted. It is represented in the Return from the Metropolitan Police Court Districts. Steps have been taken to obtain the necessary statistics from these Petty Sessional Courts, and the Return will be supplemented with the now-missing particulars, at the earliest possible date.
