HC Deb 23 June 1926 vol 197 c379W
Major GLYN

asked the Minister of Health whether any Regulations have been issued by the Ministry of Health designed to prevent the use of public libraries supported by the rates being used for political meetings, some of which are of a character which is out of accord with the majority opinion of many of the ratepayers?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

No, Sir. The Public Libraries Acts do not confer on me any power to impose such a Regulation. The management of a public library is a matter for the responsible local authority.
