§ 80. Mr. PETOasked the President of the Local Government Board, whether he can state the total increase or decrease in the number of adults and infants vaccinated in each year from 1900 to 1912, and the number of exemptions granted in each year in the case of infants, and the percentage of exemptions in each year; and whether he now proposes to issue a general Order to boards of guardians that, by fees for exemptions or by fixed salaries, the salaries of vaccination officers hall be made up to the average earnings received 787 in the years 1903 to 1907, and that the losses they have already sustained by the operation of the Vaccination Act, 1907, shall be paid to them?
§ Mr. WATTHow many questions is an hon. Member entitled to ask? There are ten down in the name of the hon. Member for East Wiltshire (Mr. Peto).
§ Mr. SPEAKERThis is the eighth question, after that the hon. Member must wait.
§ Mr. BURNSI am sending to the hon. Member a table giving, so far as it is available, the information asked for in the first part of the question. In regard to the latter part of the question I may say that the circumstances of the different cases vary to such an extent that they could not be satisfactorily dealt with by general Order.
