HC Deb 14 May 1924 vol 173 cc1394-5W
Sir K. WOOD

asked the Minister of Health whether any Metropolitan Borough Council has determined to make a contribution towards the costs of the appeal of the Poplar Borough Council in the case of Rex v. Carson Roberts, notwithstanding that the Minister has refused to give sanction under the Local Authorities (Expenses) Act, 1877, and whether he is taking any action in the matter?

Mr. WHEATLEY

I am not aware that any Metropolitan Borough Council has determined to make such a contribution.
