HC Deb 15 March 1880 vol 251 cc1010-1
MR. SULLIVAN

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty, If it is true that the Contagious Diseases Acts are, or have been, enforced beyond the fifteen mile radius from Queenstown; and, if so, what legal authority is there for such a proceeding?

COLONEL LOYD LINDSAY

Sir, as far as the War Office is aware, these Acts have not been enforced without the radius of 15 miles of Queenstown. If, however, the hon. and learned Member is in possession of any information which would lead him to suppose the contrary, I will have an inquiry if he lets me know of it.
