HC Deb 08 December 1920 vol 135 cc2097-8
44. Mr. CHARLES EDWARDS

asked the Minister of Health what was the income under the National Health Act for the last completed financial year, and the amounts paid for administration, sickness and other benefits, and remuneration to doctors; and what was the balance on the year's working and the total amount at the credit of National Health Insurance fund?

Dr. ADDISON

I am only in a position to answer for England and Wales, and would refer the hon. Member to the Secretary for Scotland and the Chief Secretary for replies as to Scotland and Ireland. For most of the information asked for by the hon. Member I would refer him to the reply given on the 30th November to a question by the hon. Member for Twickenham, of which I will send him a copy. The other matters raise detailed questions, and I hope that it will meet my hon. Friend's convenience if I send him a detailed statement on the subject.

Mr. W. THORNE

Are the 1919 balance sheets published?

Dr. ADDISON

I think so, but as I am not sure, I should want notice of that question.
