EARL of KERRYasked if any scheme made by a county committee on the basis of the 1s. 3d. per insured person plus a county rate for the treatment of all tuberculous persons in that county has been rejected by the Insurance Commissioners on the ground that 6d. out of the 1s. 3d. must remain intact for the purpose of domiciliary treatment?
§ Mr. MASTERMANThe Insurance Commissioners have not rejected for the reason indicated any scheme of arrangements proposed to be made by an insurance committee with a county council. They have, however, found it necessary in some cases to advises insurance committees that such arrangements must be framed with due regard to the proposal that 6d. cut of the 1s. 3d. per insured person available for sanatorium benefit shall, after 12th January next, be allocated to that part of sanatorium benefit which consists of domiciliary treatment.
