HC Deb 17 April 1902 vol 106 c543
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate, in view of the fact that the Secretary for Scotland has stated that he would not be disinclined to amend The Congested District (Scotland) Act, 1897, in such a manner as to provide for the establishment and maintenance of hospitals in congested areas, will he state whether he can arrange to introduce legislation on the subject this session.

* MR. A. GRAHAM MURRAY

With reference to the answer I gave to the hon. Member on the 15th March, 1901 †, the Secretary for Scotland is not yet in a position to say what steps, if any, he can take in the matter. †See (4) Debates, xci., 86.
