HC Deb 16 April 1913 vol 51 c1964W
Mr. COURTHOPE

asked the President of the Local Government Board whether, in view of the difficulty in obtaining calf lymph of as good quality as the Government vaccine and of the undesirability of persons of independent means receiving vaccination at the public expense, he will allow medical practitioners to purchase Government vaccine for use upon their private patients?

Mr. BURNS

This matter has been considered by the Local Government Board on more than one occasion, but they have not hitherto found is practicable to take action in the direction suggested.
