HC Deb 02 July 1897 vol 50 cc966-7
LORD EDMUND TALBOT (Sussex, Chichester)

I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board when guardians grant out-relief to a child who is living with a person not legally liable for its support, does it come under the Boarding-out Orders of 1889; if not, what provision is made by the Local Government Board for the welfare and protection of such children?

THE PRESIDENT OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. HENRY CHAPLIN,) Lincolnshire, Sleaford

The view of the Local Government Board is that the Boarding-out Orders apply in the cases referred to.
