HC Deb 11 April 1933 vol 276 cc2379-80W
Mr. GROVES

asked the Home Secretary whether his attention has been called to the prosecution of Mr. A. J. Fadden, 105, Monega Road, Forest Gate, E., who refused to have his child vaccinated; whether he is aware that Mr. Fadden was ordered to pay three guineas costs and that requests for an account of how these costs were made up have been refused; and whether he will call the attention of the clerk to the East Ham court to Mr. Fadden's legal right to such an account?

Sir J. GILIMOUR

I halve received representations to this effect from Mr. A. J. Fadden and the National Anti-Vaccination League. The court can award such costs as seem to it just and reasonable; and I have no authority to intervene in the matter.
