HC Deb 07 November 1912 vol 43 c1473W
Mr. JAMES PARKER

asked the President of the Local Government Board whether, in view of the decrease in the number of public vaccinations now being performed as compared with the totals before the passing of the Vaccination Act, 1907, he proposes to make a corresponding-reduction in the forthcoming Estimates for services connected with the administration of the Vaccination Acts, including the provision of calves and the manufacture and preparation of vaccine lymph?

Mr. BURNS

The amount estimated to be required in the current financial year in respect of the services referred to is considerably lower than the Estimates for the period previous to the passing of the Vaccination Act, 1907. The practicability of still further reducing the Estimate is receiving my consideration.
