MR. CARVELL WILLIAMS (Notts, Mansfield)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether his communications with the Ulverston Burial Board and the District Council of Ulversthorpe, Leicestershire, have resulted in a revision of their tables of burial fees and charges which has brought them into conformity with the law.
§ THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT (Sir MATTHEW WHITE RIDLEY,) Lancashire, BlackpoolI have this morning received replies by telegraph from the Ulverston District Council and the Countesthorpe Parish Council, the authorities, I presume, to which the hon. Member alludes, from which it appears that their fees and charges are now in conformity with the law.
§ SIR MATTHEW WHITE RIDLEYsaid he telegraphed for information, and received the reply he had given. If the hon. Gentleman desired him to inquire further he would do so.
