HC Deb 01 August 1923 vol 167 cc1513-4W
Mr. RAINE

asked the Minister of Health if he is aware that there are large stocks of certificates with advertisements on the reverse side in the hands of some of the industrial insurance companies; and will he, in view of the strong exception taken by the medical profession to such certificates being issued, cause these stocks to be replaced by the new certificates which are now being printed?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

The hon. Member has been misinformed. Certificate books are issued to insurance committees and not to approved societies. A new supply without advertisements will be available shortly, but I cannot undertake to withdraw the books already issued to practitioners.
