§ 18. Colonel DAYasked the Minister of Health whether, in view of the number of complaints received from the contributors under the National Health Insurance Acts, he will consider an inquiry regarding the medical attention afforded panel patients?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINThe efficiency of the medical service under the National 1360 Health Insurance Acts was exhaustively investigated by the Royal Commission whose Report, published early this year, contains a very favourable verdict. Comparatively few specific complaints are received by the Department, nor has anything come to my notice since the Report which would justify the holding of any further inquiry.
§ Colonel DAYHas the right hon. Gentleman received a report from the Kent Insurance Committee containing certain complaints in this matter?
§ Colonel DAYWill the right hon. Gentleman make inquiries as to whether such a report has been sent?
