HC Deb 21 March 1901 vol 91 c733
MR. J. P. FARRELL (Longford, N.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he has yet obtained a Report from the Local Government Board on the subject of making grants to assist boards of guardians to have young girls trained as properly qualified nurses, so as to avoid the expense of complying with the Board's new rule to employ as nurses, assistant or otherwise, only those who have been trained in a recognised hospital.

MR. WYNDHAM

I find that the Local Government Board has no funds for this purpose, and that legislation would be needed. I am looking further into the matter.
