§ 75. Mr. TREVELYANasked the Minister of Health what proportion of the patients under the care of the London tuberculosis dispensaries live in dwellings with one or two rooms only; and whether he intends to make any special provision 2343 for dealing with the overcrowding in the Metropolitan area?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINI have no information as to the first part of the question. As to the second part, overcrowding in the Metropolitan area will be automatically reduced as the erection of new houses proceeds.
§ Dr. CHAPPLEIs any provision made for visitation of these tuberculous cases in the houses where they live, in order to lessen the danger of contagion and to give instruction for prevention?
§ Mr. SPEAKERThat question does not arise.
