§ MR. A. C. MORTON (Peterborough)I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board whether he has yet had the Inspector's Report as to the proposed fever hospital at Norwood; whether he is aware that this hospital, if placed at Norwood, would very much damage this residential neighbourhood and the Crystal Palace; and whether he can represent to the Metropolitan Asylums Hoard the advisability of choosing a site for such a hospital which would not in any way damage the neighbourhoods?
§ THE PRESIDENT OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. H. H. FOWLER,) Wolverhampton, E.The 1897 inquiry referred to was concluded on Wednesday last, and on Thursday the Inspectors by whom it was held visited the site and its neighbourhood. I have not yet received the Report on the inquiry. I can only state that the lie-port and the Evidence will be most fully and carefully considered by me before any decision is arrived at with reference to the proposed purchase.
