HC Deb 17 July 1923 vol 166 cc2052-3
71. Mr. W. A. JENKINS

asked the Minister of Health if he is aware that at present Poor Law guardians have not the right of full representation upon the visiting committees of mental hospitals; and will he take steps to make provision for this right in the Bill about to come before Parliament?

Lord E. PERCY

The answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative, and I doubt if it is desirable to alter the existing law in the direction suggested.
