HC Deb 03 February 1913 vol 47 c1814W
Mr. GILHOOLY

asked the Chief Secretary whether the Irish Provident Assurance Company has been in liquidation for the past two years; whether he can state approximately when it will be wound up; and whether there is a probability of the insured persons receiving or deriving any benefits from it?

Mr. BIRRELL

This company has been in liquidation for the last two years, and it is impossible to say when it will be wound up, the matter being altogether under the control of the Court of Chancery. I am not in a position to make any statement with regard to the last paragraph of the question.
