HC Deb 03 August 1904 vol 139 c720
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board if he will consider the expediency of issuing to parochial medical officers, sanitary inspectors, and inspectors of poor, leaflets containing the opinions of the Committee on Physical Deterioration relative to ventilation and the bringing up of young children, with a view to the dissemination of information on these subjects amongst the families of the working classes.

THE PRESIDENT OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. WALTER LONG,) Bristol, S.

As I intimated in reply to a Question on Monday,† I have not vet been able to consider the Report of the Committee referred to, which has only just been issued. Hence I am not at present in a position to state what action I shall take in connection with the matter. I will, however, take note of the suggestion of the hon. Member.
