Sir F. HALLasked the Home Secretary whether the non-tariff offices are desirous of having a representative on the Royal Commission to inquire into fire losses; and if, considering the importance of these organisations, he can see his way to grant this request?
§ Mr. SHORTTI regret that, owing to the need of keeping the numbers of the Commission within due limits, I cannot advise His Majesty to appoint any further representative of insurance interests. The non-tariff offices will, of course, be given full opportunity of laying their views before the Commission in evidence.
