asked the Minister of Health for what reason Miss Florence Hall is being detained, while not dangerous and unfit to be at large, in the lunacy ward of Guildford Workhouse at the expense of the ratepayers, while her sister and brother-in-law are willing and anxious to give her a comfortable home and undertake all responsibility in regard to her in accordance with Section 22 of the Lunacy Act?

I am advised that this patient's mental condition and habits are such as to necessitate constant supervision, and that she is unfit for discharge from institutional care.
