§ 38. Mr. ALBERYasked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the fact that certain insurance companies and underwriters frequently endeavour to evade the payment of risks, for which they have received adequate premiums, on purely technical grounds, he will consider the desirability of introducing legislation at an early date with a view to safeguarding the public interest in this matter?
§ Mr. W. GRAHAMIf the hon. Member will give me more specific information as to the nature of the legislation which he thinks desirable, I shall be happy to consider it.
§ Mr. HORE-BELISHAHas the right hon. Gentleman's attention been drawn to a recent case in the Courts in connection with diplomatic immunity, and will he look at that case with a view to carrying out the suggestions embodied in this question?
§ Mr. GRAHAMCertainly, I will look at any case which in any way bears on this question.
