§ Mr. LANSBURYasked what is the position under the National Insurance Bill of a woman outworker who takes home quantities of work and employs other people in its making-up; will she be considered an employer of such persons and will she be expected to collect the insurance money, and in her case will the original employer deduct from her earnings; and, if so, on what amount will it be deducted, the gross or net earnings of the person concerned?
§ Mr. LLOYD GEORGEIt would be a question to be determined from the facts of a particular case whether the woman in question was herself the employer of the persons who did the work or whether she was the agent for the person from whom she obtained it.
