§ Mr. P. MEEHANasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether, in view of the recent decision of the King's Bench Division in Ireland that it is obligatory on boards of guardians to enforce vaccination in their districts, he will take steps to confer on Irish parents the privileges enjoyed by English parents and amend the Irish Vaccination Acts by the insertion of the conscientious objector's clause; if he has received any resolutions on the subject from public bodies and societies in Ireland; whether he regards a demand from the various boards of guardians in Ireland as a general demand for legislation on the subject; and if he will introduce the necessary legislation in compliance with such general demand?
§ Mr. BIRRELLI would refer the hon. Member to the reply given to the question on this subject asked by the hon. Member for the Dublin Harbour Division on the 23rd November.
