HC Deb 26 June 1913 vol 54 cc1231-2W
Colonel PEEL

asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether, to be able to claim exemption from contributions under the Insurance Act, a fisherman must have a share in the boat and gear as well as in the catch?

Mr. MASTERMAN

Special orders excepting share fishermen from compulsory insurance have only been granted in the case of ports where the conditions of employment approximated to co-partner-ship, but they have not been limited to cases where the men were part-owners of the boats.
