25. Sir H. BRITTAIN

asked the Minister of Labour, as representing the Ministry of Health, whether, in the case of an epidemic of small-pox, as at present, it is the policy of his Department to encourage the precaution of vaccination?

Sir M. BARLOW

Yes, Sir.

Sir H. BRITTAIN

As representing the Ministry of Health, and to set a good example, has the right hon. Gentleman himself been subjected to vaccination?

Lieut.-Colonel FREMANTLE

Has the Ministry of Health taken any steps to consider the advisability of merging the system of vaccination into the general system of public health administration in this country?

Mr. SPEAKER

That question does not arise.
