HC Deb 02 June 1913 vol 53 c594
79. Mr. W. THORNE

asked whether Dr. Toogood is a full-time officer of the Lewisham guardians as medical superintendent of the Lewisham infirmary; if the doctor in question is employed by an insurance company to examine workpeople in connection with cases under the Workmen's Compensation Act, and has an office in the borough of West Ham; and whether the Local Government Board sanction the practice of full-time medical officers devoting the Sabbath to business for insurance companies?

Mr. BURNS

According to my information Dr. Toogood is not required to devote his whole time to his duties under the board of guardians.
