§ 56. Mr. LANSBURYasked the Minister of Health the number of ex-service men and their dependants who were inmates of the casual and tramp wards of England and Wales on the night of 31st July?
§ The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the MINISTRY of HEALTH (Sir Kingsley Wood)I regret that this information is not available.
§ Mr. LANSBURYThe hon. Gentleman did give me the information up to date some months ago; Why should it be impossible to get it now?
§ Sir K. WOODI will inquire. I am informed that my Department has not got it now.
§ Mr. LANSBURYI do not mind it not being available to-day, but will not the hon. Gentleman get it for me? It was given to me already from an earlier date.
§ Sir K. WOODI will inquire further.
§ Mr. LANSBURYYou will have to wake them up.
