§ 38. Sir J. D. REESasked the Secretary to the Treasury whether employers who pay wages quarterly may at the expiry of the quarter affix to the card one stamp for 6s. 6d. instead of thirteen 6d. stamps?
§ The FINANCIAL SECRETARY to the TREASURY (Mr. Masterman)6s. 6d. Health Insurance stamps will be supplied to employers who have adopted the system of bulk stamping with a preliminary deposit. The Insurance Commissioners would be prepared to consider the question of supplying thirteen-weeks' stamps to any employer who may pay wages quarterly at the end of the insurance quarters, if there were any evidence that the supply of such stamps upon special application to them would be of general convenience. No such evidence is, however, at present available.
