§ 85. Mr. JAMES PARKERasked the President of the Local Government Board whether he can now state the result of his inquiries into the dismissal by the rural district council of Chippenham of their inspector of nuisances; whether he is satisfied with the reasons given by the council; and whether he will withhold the Board's consent to the new appointment unless he is fully satisfied that the new inspector will have complete freedom to discharge his duties in a thorough manner?
§ The PRESIDENT of the LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. Burns)I cannot say I am entirely satisfied with the council's reasons for dismissing the 1276 inspector of nuisances, and I propose to have some further investigation made into the administration of the rural district council. In the meantime no sanction to the new appointment will be given.
