asked the Minister of Health the number of persons who were found by the verdict of a coroner's inquest to have died of starvation, or to have had their deaths accelerated by privation in England and Wales in the year 1921: and will he state their ages and sex, the dates of the inquests, and the names of the unions and counties in which the deaths occurred?

I am sending the hon. Member a statement containing the information lie desires.

Will that statement contain any facts as to whether these persons who have died have received, or have applied for, Poor Law relief?

I should think it probably will.
