§ MR. SCOTT (Ashton-under-Lyne)To ask the President of the Local Government Board if he will instruct vaccination officers to stay further proceedings being taken by them against parents for non-vaccination, pending the legislation promised for next year.
(Answered by Mr. John Burns.) Looking to the statutory duties which devolve on the vaccination officers in this matter, it does not appear to me that I am empowered to give them any such instructions as those suggested.
