HC Deb 18 March 1926 vol 193 cc590-1
54. Sir F. HALL

asked the Minister of Health when he hopes to be in a position to communicate to the House his decision with regard to the introduction of legislation designed to make relieving officers ineligible for election on any local body in the area in which they are so employed?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I am not yet in a position to make a statement on this matter.

Sir F. HALL

In view of the answer that he gave me two or three weeks a-go, when will my right hon. Friend be able to give me a reply? When shall I put the question again?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I will communicate with my hon. and gallant Friend when I think it will be convenient.

Sir F. HALL

Shall I put it down after Easter?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

Very well.
