HC Deb 25 June 1913 vol 54 c1060
52. Mr. CATHCART WASON

asked the Secretary to the Treasury if he has now been able to consider the Report of the Scottish Insurance Commissioners with reference to payment of travelling expenses of members of insurance committees in those counties where no possible levy would suffice?

Mr. MASTERMAN

The matter is stilt the subject of departmental correspondence between the Scottish Insurance Commission and the Treasury, and I am not yet in a position to make any statement.

Mr. CATHCART WASON

Will the right hon. Gentleman be able to expedite the matter? It has been months and months under consideration.

Mr. MASTERMAN

It is a very difficult question involving something far more than the Highlands themselves. We are going to deal with the Highlands in a special manner.
