§ 18. Sir PHILIP MAGNUSasked the President of the Local Government Board what steps, if any, he has been able to take to remove the pressing disabilities of medical officers of health as regards insecurity of tenure, absence of any scheme of superannuation, and inability to obtain payment of travelling expenses in discharge of their duties, which were brought under his notice by the deputation which he and the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the President of the Board of Education recently received; and whether the 807 position of sanitary inspectors, as regards some of their disabilities, is likely to be improved?
§ Mr. HERBERT LEWISI can say no more at the present moment than that the matter is engaging the close attention of my right hon. Friend.
