HC Deb 05 July 1922 vol 156 c394W
Mr. LYLE

asked the Minister of Health if he has any records showing the number of established cases of obtaining relief from boards of guardians under false pretences; in how many of such have prosecutions been instituted; and whether he can make representations to the magistrates that heavier penalties should be imposed?

Sir A. MOND

No statistics are available, but I have no reason to suppose that there is any need for making representations to the magistrates in the sense suggested.
