§ 43. Mr. BLACKasked the Prime Minister whether he is aware that during the six years, 1908–13, nearly one and a-half million of children have been legally 1322 exempted from vaccination in England and Wales under the provisions of the Vaccination Act, 1907; and whether, in view of the popularity of that measure and the wishes of the people as demonstrated through its working, he will endeavour to get the Vaccination Acts (Repeal) Bill, standing in the name of the hon. Member for Biggleswade, passed next Session?
§ Mr. HERBERT SAMUELMy right hon. Friend has asked me to reply to this question. I cannot make any promise with regard to next Session's legislation.
