HC Deb 17 July 1893 vol 14 cc1693-4
MR. KEIR HARDIE (West Ham, S.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he has instructed the police at Walham Green to distrain for fines imposed by the Magistrate at the West London Police Court, for non-compliance with the Vaccination Acts; and whether such fines should be collected by the Local Authorities who are the prosecutors?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. ASQUITH, Fife, E.)

I regret to say I have not yet received the necessary information to enable me to answer this question.
