HC Deb 21 October 1912 vol 42 c1720
35. Mr. CAMPION

asked why a letter from the secretary of the Stock Exchange Clerks' Health Insurance Society to the Insurance Commissioners, dated the 11th instant, and applying for sanatorium treatment for an insured member suffering from an incipient form of consumption, was not answered until 16th instant, and then only in consequence of a telephonic communication?

Mr. MASTERMAN

The letter referred to was received on Saturday, the 12th, and answered on Wednesday, the 16th instant. It was ready for despatch when the telephonic communication was received. I do not think it can be said that there was any undue delay in dealing with this case.
