HC Deb 18 May 1915 vol 71 cc2161-2W
Commander BELLAIRS

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will state the approximate loss which falls on the War Risks Insurance Fund through the sinking of the "Lusitania" and her cargo.

Mr. RUNCIMAN

The "Lusitania" was insured under the Government Scheme. The amount of the insurance is, of course, large, but it is not thought desirable to publish the amounts for which particular ships are insured under the War Risks Scheme.
