HC Deb 14 October 1912 vol 42 cc793-4W
Sir DANIEL GODDARD

asked the Secretary to the Treasury if his attention has been called to the fact that in many agricultural districts the employers frequently insist on taking their men's insurance contributors in a lump sum instead of deducting each man's contribution once a week from his wage; and what steps the Insurance Commissioners propose to take to safeguard the rights of the workers in this respect?

Mr. MASTERMAN

I have no information of the practice referred to in the question. If the hon. Member will give me any specific instances he has in mind I will have inquiry made.
