HC Deb 14 March 1907 vol 171 c222
DR. RUTHERFORD

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether there is still only one lunatic asylum for the whole of Upper and Lower Egypt; what is the number of beds; what is the number of Europeans and Natives respectively mentally afflicted who have been annually placed under control during the last five years; and what proportion do those figures bear to the total number of persons of unsound mind throughout the country.

SIR EDWARD GREY

Lord Cromer's Report for 1906, which will shortly be published, contains full information on the first two points raised by the hon. Member. I am not in possession of any statistics enabling me to deal with the last two points raised.
