§ Mr. LEWIS HASLAMasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in consideration of the long experience in Germany with regard to national systems of insurance, he will take steps to obtain for the information of hon. Members a translation of the Consolidated Bill introduced into the Bundesrath on 2nd April last embodying the laws now in operation in that country on this subject, with the addition of extensions and amendments?
§ Mr. HOBHOUSEI understand that the Bill in question is a very lengthy document of 1,750 clauses, the translation of which would involve much time and labour; and I think it would probably be desirable to wait until it has become law before considering the question of having a translation made.
