§ 22. Mr. THORNEasked the Minister of Health whether his attention has been called to the unsanitary conditions of the Cheam mortuary; whether he has received a report from the coroner; and whether any action is to be taken in the matter?
Sir H. YOUNGThe answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative. I have received no report from the coroner, but I have communicated with the urban district council in the matter.
§ Dr. O'DONOVANHas the right hon. Gentleman received complaints that a considerable number of mortuaries throughout the country are in an unsanitary condition?
Sir H. YOUNGNo, Sir. If the hon. Member has a case in mind, perhaps he will bring it to my attention.
