HC Deb 11 May 1910 vol 17 c813W
Mr. WEIR

asked the Lord Advocate, in view of the fact that Dr. Leslie Mackenzie, medical member of the Local Government Board for Scotland, has shown that in some parishes in the Highland crofting counties 70 per cent. of the deaths are uncertified, will he state what action the Government proposes to take in the matter?

Mr. URE

No action can be taken without legislation; and there is no present intention to legislate.
