§ MR. WOOTTON ISAACSON (Tower Hamlets, Stepney)I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board whether, in view of the supposed outbreak of typhoid fever in the parish of St. George's, Hanover Square, he will call on the Sanitary Inspectors of the parish to report on those houses which still have open cesspools, and advise as to their immediate removal?
§ THE PRESIDENT OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. RITCHIE, ) Tower Hamlets, St. George'sI have no authority to give any directions to the Sanitary Inspectors of the parish of St. George's, Hanover Square. They are in no way subject to the jurisdiction of the Local Government Board. I will, however, communicate with the Vestry of the parish with reference to the question.
