HC Deb 15 November 1917 vol 99 c608W
Mr. CHANCELLOR

asked the Comptroller of the Household, as representing the National Health Insurance Commissioners, whether he is aware that the London Panel Committee, representing the medical practitioners engaged in insurance practice in the Metropolitan area, have advised their constituents to refuse to carry out the new Regulations re invalided seamen, marines, and soldiers, issued by the Commissioners; and whether he can state the number of doctors who have notified the London Insurance Committee to this effect?

Sir E. CORNWALL

Since the date referred to in the question the London Panel Committee have been in communication with the Commissioners, with a view to the elucidation of various points in connection with the new Regulations; and it is not, therefore, possible yet to know what course individual doctors in London may decide to adopt in regard to the matter referred to in the question.
