HC Deb 25 February 1914 vol 58 c1761
66. Mr. G. LOCKER-LAMPSON

asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether it was recorded in the last minutes of the Glasgow insurance committee that twenty-seven persons were awaiting admission to sanatoria, and that no less than 208 applications for sanatorium benefit were waiting consideration by the committee?

Mr. BENN

My right hon. Friend's attention had not previously been drawn to the statement referred to. He is making inquiry, and will communicate with the hon. Member.

Mr. CROOKS

Will the hon. Gentleman take into consideration that the institution at Blackwall could be made available in twenty-four hours?

Mr. BENN

Perhaps my hon. Friend will give me particulars as to the institution.
