§ Mr. CAUTLEYasked the President of the Local Government Board whether his attention has been called to the fact that, in spite of the opposition of several of their members, the East Grinstead guardians have resolved upon the vaccination of an orphan child named Victoria May Simmonds, aged eleven months, now in their charge, although its grandmother had made a statutory declaration of conscientious objection to the vaccination of the child whilst it was under her care; and whether he will take steps to secure that under circumstances such as these vaccination should not be performed?
§ Mr. HERBERT SAMUELMy attention has been drawn to this case. I am communicating with the guardians on the subject, and will inform the hon. Member of the result.
