asked the Minister of Health from how many boards of guardians he has received communications urging the desirability of amending Section 1 (1) of the Poor Law Act, 1899, by substituting 21 years for 18 years as the limit of age of vesting of parental powers in the guardians?

Mr. WHEATLEY

I have received communications on this subject from 95 boards of guardians.
