DR. CAMERON (for Dr. LUSH)asked the President of the Local Government Board, If the inquiry instituted by him last year into the causes of the great prevalence of small pox in the metropolis has led to any definite results; and, if he will explain to the House what increased sanitary safeguards he proposes to recommend for adoption, either by legislation or otherwise?
§ MR. SCLATER-BOOTH, in reply, said, the Report had not yet come into his hands; but he had no doubt it would contain information that might lead to a useful amendment of the law. At present he had no intention of proposing legislation; but arrangements were now being made for a more careful carrying out of the Act dealing with vaccination.
