HC Deb 30 March 1914 vol 60 cc813-4
56. Mr. RUPERT GWYNNE

asked the Prime Minister if he will consider the advisability of remedying the inconvenience caused to Members of this House, as well as to the public, by having no direct representative of the Insurance Commissioners in this House to explain the rules and regulations they make from day to day, and answer questions regarding their actions?

The PRIME MINISTER

My hon. Friend the Member for St. George's-in-the-East ably represents the Insurance Commissioners in the House, and he or the Commissioners will be pleased to explain any points in connection with the matters referred to.

Mr. RUPERT GWYNNE

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that in however able a manner the hon. Member for St. George's-in-the-East may answer questions in this House, he has no direct authority to speak for, or on behalf of, the Insurance Commissioners?
