§ MR. J. JOHNSON (Gateshead)To ask the President of the Local Government Board whether he has power of himself to reduce the fees paid to public vaccinators, without having to appeal to Parliament or any other authority; and, if so, will he arrange for such reduction.
(Answered by Mr. John Burns.) The Local Government Board are empowered in their own discretion to make rules and regulations with respect to the remuneration of public vaccinators. I am giving consideration to the regulations on this subject.
