§ Mr. MASTERMANYes, Sir, at least two approved societies, the Manchester Unity of Oddfellows and the Ancient Order of Foresters, have branches in New Zealand, to which the transfer value of such a person could be paid, provided that the Insurance Commissioners were satisfied that the branches gave corresponding rights to any of their members becoming resident in the United Kingdom.
