HC Deb 07 December 1911 vol 32 cc1745-6W
Mr. GRETTON

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if an undertaking has been entered into by the Treasury that the co-operative societies will be approved societies under the National Insurance Bill; and whether any undertakings or understandings can be entered into before the Insurance Commissioners have issued their regulations?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

No undertaking can be given by the Treasury. It is a question that must be decided under the Bill by the Insurance Commissioners.
