Mental Deficiency (Scotland) Bill.

HC Deb 08 April 1913 vol 51 c1005

28. Mr. DUNCAN MILLAR

asked when the Mental Deficiency (Scotland) Bill will be introduced?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer which I gave to a similar question by the hon. and gallant Member for Midlothian on Thursday.

Mr. BOOTH

Can my right hon. Friend assure us that before any definite progress is made with the English Bill we shall see a copy of the Scottish Bill for the purposes of comparison?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

Yes, I think there is no doubt that a copy of the Scottish Bill will be ready before progress is reported with the English Bill.
