HC Deb 05 March 1847 vol 90 cc948-9
DR. BOWRING

asked the hon. Vice-President of the Board of Trade, if any important change or modification had lately taken place in the quarantine regulations, or whether there was a probability of any changes being made; and, also, whether the Government was willing to lay before the House in an official shape any documents upon the subject.

MR. M. GIBSON

said, the only new regulations he was aware of had been made during the past month, by which ships from Turkey, loaded with unenumerated articles only, having clean bills of health, and with every person on board free from the suspicion of infection, were in future to be released from all quarantine; the regulations would be laid on the Table of the House.
