HC Deb 21 February 1912 vol 34 cc615-6
Mr. STANIER

asked the President of the Local Government Board whether he proposes to bring in a Bill this Session to make it legal for county council officials to be paid their expenses when they are sent to attend conferences?

Mr. BURNS

I cannot promise to introduce legislation on this subject at the present time.

Mr. STANIER

Has the right hon. Gentleman's attention been called to the fact that grave injustice is being done?

Mr. BURNS

No, since the Debate which took place early last year, I do not think I have received any communication upon the matter.
