HC Deb 28 February 1896 vol 37 c1388
MR. HEYWOOD JOHNSTONE (Suffolk, Horsham)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he can state when the Report of the Royal Commission on Vaccination (appointed in May 1889) will be presented to Her Majesty?

SIR MATTHEW WHITE RIDLEY

I am informed that the final Report of the Commission is now under their consideration, but I am not in a position to say more than that I hope to be able to present it to Her Majesty shortly.

MR. JOHNSTONE

Has anything been done to accelerate the Report:

SIR MATTHEW WHITE RIDLEY

I believe the President of the Local Government Board has communicated with the Chairman of the Commission, and has informed him there is a great desire that this Report should be presented.
