HC Deb 12 May 1914 vol 62 cc931-2W
Mr. WORTHINGTON EVANS

asked the President of the Board of Trade how many members of the 343 associations held by the Board of Trade to have satisfied the conditions required for a repayment under Section 106 of the National Insurance Act are in insured trades?

Mr. BURNS

Of the associations (now numbering 344) held by the Board of Trade to have satisfied the conditions required for a repayment under Section 106 of the National Insurance Act, 103 associations have arrangements under Section 105. These associations include, according to the latest figures available, 538,009 members in the insured trades. The Board have no returns as to the number of insured members in the remaining 241 associations, but it may be taken that the number of such members is so small as to be practically negligible.
