§ Sir JOHN ROLLESTONasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether the employer of a pensioner over seventy years old has to pay any contribution under the National Insurance Act; and, if so, to what purpose is this contribution applied, the person on whose account it is contributed being an exempted person?
§ Mr. MASTERMANUnder Section 4 (3) of the National Insurance Act no contributions are payable in respect of employed contributors of the age of seventy and upwards, either by themselves or their employers. The second part of the question does not therefore arise.
