§ Mr. LUNNasked the President of the Local Government Board whether, in view of the fact that there has been no election of urban district councillors for five years, he will consider the advisability of introducing legislation at an early date to provide for local elections, and that at such elections all existing councillors shall retire, thereby giving the electors an opportunity of choosing who shall be their representatives for the next three years?
§ Dr. ADDISONI would refer the hon. Member to the reply given to the question of the hon. Member for St. Helens on the 17th instant.
