MR. M'CULLAGH TORRENSsaid, he wished to ask the President of the Poor Law Board, When the Return, ordered on the 19th February, regarding the cost of Sick Poor Asylums in the Metropolis will be presented to the House?
§ MR. GOSCHENsaid, in reply, that the part of the Return which related to the number of medical officers, their salaries, and the cost of medicine for the last three years could not be obtained without communicating with several Boards of Guardians, and there- 955 fore there had been some delay in collecting that information. It would probably be in the hands of Members next week. The other part of the Return he would endeavour to place in the hands of Members the day after to-morrow.
