MR. SYKESasked the President of the Local Government Board, Whether he has received a Memorial from the inhabitants of Bridlington against the extension of the Bridlington Local Government District; and, if so, whether it is his intention to ask Parliament to confirm such Provisional Order?
§ MR. SCLATER-BOOTH, in reply, said, he had received such a Memorial from Bridlington. The objections taken in the Memorial were the same as those which had been urged before the Inspector who held an inquiry on the spot, at which all the parties had an opportunity of being heard. The Provisional Order had been embodied in a Bill which was now before Parliament, and it would be his duty to further that Bill in the usual way.
