HC Deb 22 March 1932 vol 263 cc889-90W
Mr. GROVES

asked the Minister of Health whether the statistics of smallpox cases published in the epidemiological report of the health organisation of the League of Nations are supplied by his Department; and whether the statistics of smallpox deaths are also supplied?

Sir H. YOUNG

The official returns of the Registrar-General and other official documents relating to smallpox cases and smallpox deaths in England and Wales are regularly supplied by my Department to the Health Organisation of the League of Nations and are available to that organisation in the preparation of its epidemiological reports.

any information tending to show whether French flour is replacing flour milled from English wheat in the manufacture of biscuits?

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

I regret that I have no precise information on this subject, but I would add that imports of flour from France were considerably less in the first two months of this year than in the same periods of 1930 and 1931.
