HC Deb 30 October 1911 vol 30 c518
Mr. CATHCART WASON

asked what provision there is for deposit contributors in the Highlands and Islands living at great distances from any medical officer receiving adequate consideration?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

The local health committees, on which the deposit contributors will be represented, will be responsible for providing the benefits to which the deposit contributors are entitled. The proviso to Sub-clause (2) of Clause 32 was specially inserted to enable the local committees to deal with deposit contributors separately in such cases.

Mr. CATHCART WASON

Will the right hon. Gentleman say how the money is to be found?
