§ MR. HIGHAM (Yorkshire, W.R., Sowerby)I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board if he will issue a circular to local authorities, especially boroughs, pointing out the wisdom of contributing to the upkeep of consumption sanatoria, either by annual contribution or by a sum per capita, according to the number of sufferers from tuberculosis the authority may send to the sanatorium for treatment.
§ MR. JOHN BURNSI propose to issue an Order to provide for the notification to medical officers of health of pauper cases of pulmonary tuberculosis, and I also propose, when sending copies of the Order to the sanitary authorities, to draw their attention to the administrative action which can be taken in connection with such matters as that referred to in the Question. This will, I hope meet the object which my hon. friend has in view.
