HC Deb 23 October 1912 vol 42 c2200W
Major HOPE

asked the Secretary to the Treasury if he will consider the advisability of the Insurance Commissioners issuing a pamphlet for the information of insured persons likely to emigrate, containing a list of those British Possessions and foreign countries in which there is either a society similar to an approved society, or a branch of an approved society, as referred to in Clause 32 (1) of the National Insurance Act, and to which transfer values can now be paid?

Mr. MASTERMAN

The Commissioners are approaching the leading friendly societies in order to obtain further information as to the number of societies having branches in other countries. When they have this further information they will consider the advisability of adopting the hon. and gallant Member's suggestion.
