HC Deb 24 March 1920 vol 127 c394
33. Mr. G. LOCKER LAMPSON

asked the Minister of Health whether he will refer to the Consultative Council on National Health Insurance or to a small committee the question of the desirability of abolishing the class of deposit contributors?

The MINISTER of HEALTH (Dr. Addison)

The majority of deposit contributors are in this class by their own choice, and there is no evidence of any general desire for the abolition of deposit insurance. If at any time it is found that there is an appreciable number of insured persons unable to obtain admission to approved societies, I will refer to the Insurance Consultative Council the question of making some alternative arrangements.
