HC Deb 23 May 1927 vol 206 c1665W
Colonel DAY

asked the Minister of Health the names of our representatives who attended the International Congress on Hydrophobia which was summoned by the health section of the League of Nations held at Paris, together with the cost to Great Britain?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

The Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries was represented by Dr. W. H. Andrews, the Medical Research Council by Captain S. R. Douglas, and the Ministry of Health by Dr. W. M. Scott. In addition, six representatives attended from British Institutes overseas at which anti-rabic work is specially important. The only expenses entailed to the public funds were travelling and subsistence allowances on the ordinary scale for the three delegates from Great Britain.
