HC Deb 14 August 1913 vol 56 c2755

Subject to the provisions of Sub-section (4) of Section ten of the principal Act insured persons who are in arrear shall be liable to such suspension or reduction of benefits as may be prescribed so, however, that any such reduction or suspension of benefit shall be approximately equivalent to the value of the loss occasioned by the failure to pay the contributions in arrear, and the provisions of the principal Act regulating the suspension and reduction of benefits on account of arrears shall cease to have effect, and the regulations of the Insurance Commissioners may prescribe the time within which, and the conditions under which, arrears may be paid up.

Lords Amendment: Leave out the words "suspension or reduction" ["liable to such suspension or reduction "], and insert instead thereof the words "reduction, suspension, or postponement."
