HC Deb 25 July 1912 vol 41 cc1355-6
07. Mr. GODFREY LOCKER-LAMP-SON

asked whether exemption books have now been sent to all those insured persons who have obtained certificates of exemption under the National Insurance Act?

Mr. MASTERMAN

I am informed that about 90 per cent, of the cases in which applications for exemption have been approved the books have been already issued, and of course exemptions are being granted and exemption books issued daily in great numbers.

Mr. G. LOCKER-LAMPSON

Would the right hon. Gentleman consider the advisability of issuing exemption books and certificates at the same time?

Mr. MASTERMAN

I will consider that.
