§ SIR GUYER HUNTER (Hackney, Central)asked the First Lord of the Treasury, Whether any acceptance will be accorded to the Memorial of the Congress of Sanitary Inspectors of June last, submitting the expediency of the adoption of one presented from the late Earl of Shaftesbury, K.G., and the Heads of Sanitary Institutions, praying that the like recognition may be given to distinguished sanitary service in saving life that is given to distinguished naval and military service?
THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (Mr. GOSCHEN)(who replied) said (St. George's, Hanover Square)The hon. Member does not state in his Question to whom the Memorial referred to was addressed; and, though I have made inquiries on the subject, I have as yet been unable to trace it, and am not in a position, therefore, to give any information on the subject.
