HC Deb 12 December 1911 vol 32 c2326W
Captain WARING

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in the application of Clause 47 of the National Insurance Bill, the term sea-fishing service includes coast fishermen; and, if so, on what terms they will participate in the benefits of the Seamen's National Insurance Society?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

The answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative, except in the case of vessels propelled by oars; and to the second part, that the terms are those set out in the Section, and in the scheme to be prepared in due course by the committee of management of the society, with the approval of the Board of Trade and the Insurance Commissioners.
