HC Deb 10 December 1912 vol 45 c235
38. Mr. SOAMES

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if his attention has been drawn to the travelling expenses incurred by members of health insurance committees; and whether he can see his way to make such travelling expenses a charge upon the moneys specially provided by Parliament?

The FINANCIAL SECRETARY to the TREASURY (Mr. Masterman)

I have nothing to add at present to the previous answers which I have given to this question.

Mr. H. W. FORSTER

May I ask the right hon. Gentleman if the expenses of the members of these committees exceed the amount allowed under the Act?

Mr. MASTERMAN

I have no information to that effect at present, but the question is being considered.
