§ SIR CHARLES ADDERLEYasked the First Lord of the Treasury, Whether the entire omission in Her Majesty's Speech of any reference to the completion of recent sanitary legislation by a consolidation of the numerous existing Acts giving powers to the authorities now constituted, implies that the Government do not intend to introduce any measure this Session for effecting such consolidation?
MR. GLADSTONEsaid, it was not the intention of the Government to take any immediate steps for the promotion of sanitary legislation.
