§ 49. Mr. OAKLEYasked the Minister of Health if he will consider an alteration of the Regulations governing the payment for loss of time of the members of county insurance committees in their attendance on same, and put the member who is in business on his own account and loses his time, and has to pay a substitute, on the same scale as the employed member who gets paid for his loss of remunerative time?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINNo, Sir. As at present advised I am not prepared to authorise any departure from the present practice, but the question which my hon. Friend raises would come within the reference of the Royal Commission and will doubtless be considered by them.
