§ Captain BOURNEasked the Home Secretary whether, seeing that Section 35 of the Poor Law Act, 1927, repealed Section 54 of the Poor Law (Amendment) Act, 1934, he will consider the advisability of issuing a fresh Circular to magistrates' clerks, explaining the powers conferred on magistrates by the Act of 1927 of ordering Poor Law relief?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSIt is not usual to issue Circulars in regard to every Act but only in special cases, and I do not think it necessary to issue a Circular letter to justices' clerks upon this subject.
