HC Deb 17 July 1925 vol 186 cc1709-10W
Mr. LIVINGSTONE

asked the Secretary for Scotland whether he can state the average length of life in the Island of Lewis and also in Scotland and in England?

Sir J. GILMOUR

I am not clear in what sense the hon. Member intends the expression "average length of life" in the areas mentioned to be interpreted, and am doubtful whether statistics are available for a satisfactory reply. If, however, he will discuss the matter with me, I shall be glad to consider it further.
