HC Deb 23 July 1919 vol 118 cc1396-7W
Mr. WATERSON

asked the Minister of Health if he will take steps to secure a money grant, under Section. 1 of the National Insurance Act, 1913, in order that insurance committees may grant subsistence allowance in respect of dependants of insured persons whilst undergoing treatment in sanatoria, so as to encourage those already suffering to undergo treatment but who cannot do it because of their pecuniary position?

Major ASTOR

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given on the 15th April to a question put by my hon. Friend the Member for Exeter.
