§ Mr. CLAUDE HAYasked the President of the Local Government Board whether a member of a board of guardians is entitled by any rule of the Local Government 1993 Board to communicate to a paid political agent information, known to him only in his capacity of guardian, as to the persons whose poverty necessitated their receiving Poor Law relief?
§ The PRESIDENT of the LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. Burns)The reply is in the negative. The Board have not made any Rule on the subject.
§ Mr. HAYThen am I to understand that a member of a board of guardians is at liberty to communicate to any third party information received in his official capacity as to the circumstances of those in receipt of poor relief?
