43. Colonel DAY

asked the Minister of Health whether he is prepared to promote legislation to abolish the existing disqualification in regard to candidatures for boards of guardians among those who have, within the preceding 12 months, received benefit from the Poor Law?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the MINISTRY of HEALTH(Sir Kingsley Wood)

My right hon. Friend does not think that it would be desirable to introduce legislation in this sense.
