Mr. SMEDLEY CROOKE

asked the Minister of Health if he can give the total amount of the reserve fund in connection with the National Health Insurance Act held on 31st December, 1924, or the latest available date by the National Health Insurance Commissioners anti by approved societies, respectively?

number of owners of land in the country, or whether he has any information under his control from which an approximate estimate of such number can be made?

Captain HACKING

The number of agricultural holdings exceeding one acre which were stated to be owned or mainly owned by the occupier in 1924 was 94,236, which was 23 per cent. of the total number of holdings returned in that year. There is not, so far as my right hon. Friend is aware, any information as to the number of owners of land later than the Return made in 1873.
