HC Deb 12 June 1876 vol 229 cc1668-9
MR. KAY-SHUTTLEWORTH

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Whether the Return, ordered on the 21st February, respecting steps taken under the Artizans' and Labourers' Dwellings Acts of last Session, is likely soon to be presented, and what has been the cause of the delay?

MR. ASSHETON CROSS,

in reply, said, that Returns on this subject had been received from the metropolis; but the reason why there had been a delay in the matter was, that they had not yet arrived from the sanitary authorities in the country.
