HC Deb 24 April 1913 vol 52 cc532-3
72. Sir J. D. REES

asked whether any insurance committee has allowed any arrangements under Section 15 (3) of the National Insurance Act with herbalists or Christian Scientists?

Mr. MASTERMAN

I have no information as to such arrangements, which are dependent on the discretion of the insurance committees.

Sir J. D. REES

Would the right hon. Gentleman not become aware of the extraordinary fact if any such arrangements were officially sanctioned by an insurance committee?

Mr. MASTERMAN

No; the insurance committees do not report to me particulars of those insured persons whom they allow to make their own arrangements.

Sir J. D. REES

Would he be so good as to make inquiries?
