HC Deb 04 March 1919 vol 113 c223
Sir P. MAGNUS

had given notice of the following question:

74. To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he can say how many members of his staff are engaged in the medical inspection or treatment of persons employed in factories or workshops, or otherwise engaged in matters relating to such duties?

Sir P. MAGNUS

I have received a written answer to this question, but I would ask the right hon. Gentleman to say whether he will consider the advisability of transferring from the Home Office the duties and powers referred to in the question to the new Ministry of Health?

Mr. SHORTT

Yes.
