HC Deb 08 May 1890 vol 344 c462
DR. TANNER (Cork Co., Mid)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether Irish Dispensary Medical Officers are required to reside in their Dispensary Districts, and if so, why Mr. J. M. Ambrose, M.R.C.S.E., Dispensary Medical Officer to the Ardagh District, in the Newcastle West Union, is not compelled to comply with the Rule; and whether any complaints have been made to the Local Government Board with respect to the inconvenience experienced in the Ardagh District in consequence of Mr. Ambrose not residing therein?

THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOE IRELAND (Mr. A. J. BALFOUR,) Manchester, E.

I beg to refer the hon. Member to the replies given to questions put by him in this House on the 13th and 20th December, 1888,on the subject-matter of the first paragraph. No complaints appear to have reached the Local Government Board since that time.
