HC Deb 03 December 1936 vol 318 c1458W
Mr. KIRBY

asked the Minister of Health whether he will consider the desirability of introducing at an early date legislation, having for its object the equalisation throughout the country of rates levied by local authorities for purposes of public assistance?

Sir K. WOOD

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave to-day to a similar question by the hon. Member for Houghton-le-Spring (Mr. W. Joseph Stewart).
