HC Deb 10 February 1927 vol 202 c301W
Miss LAWRENCE

asked the Minister of Health whether, seeing that the West Ham Board of Guardians have only repaid interest charges on the current year, and have not made any of the repayment of capital, the condition on which the loan was granted to the guardians by the Goschen Committee, he has approved such a course?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

In order to avoid any further borrowing by the West Ham Board of Guardians, I have on the recommendation of the Goschen Committee postponed for the present the payment of the instalment of principal due on 30th September last.
