VISITING PARLIAMENTARIANS
THREE DECLINE VACCINATION.
METHOD OF EVADING QUARAN-
TINE.
MELBOURNE, Aug. 22
News has been received that amongst the members of the Empire Parliamentary Party now on their way to Australia, Messrs Black, Crook, and Jones decline to undergo vaccination on, conscientious grounds, being members of the British anti-vaccination party.
Two other members are averse to being vaccinated but their objections are less strong.
The only arrangement that can be made for the objectors' is that they be landed at Suva and thence brought to Australia; otherwise they would have to enter New Zealand which would involve their being quarantined when they reached Australia.
Arriving from Fiji they would be landed at Broken Bay. from whence they can be conveyed north or south without entering the quarantine area. mean.T ndeddha VVlcuilO team.-o
