HC Deb 26 April 1909 vol 4 c15
Mr. WEIR

asked the Lord Advocate, in view of the fact that during the years 1903–7 there were 2,915 uncertified deaths in Ross-shire and Inverness-shire, would he state what action the Local Government Board for Scotland propose to take to secure certification of deaths in the Highlands and Islands?

Mr. URE

No action can be taken without legislation, which is not at present in contemplation by the Government.
