HC Deb 23 July 1929 vol 230 c1093W
Mr. REMER

asked the Minister of Health if he is aware that the Disley Rural District Council has made no request of any kind for a decision under the national health insurance as to the employment of John William Close and James Wild, referred to in the Ministry's letter of 18th June; that they have been stamping the cards for many years; and will he cause to be addressed to that council a clear statement as to their duties and the reason for the communication?

Mr. GREENWOOD

As regards the first two parts of the question, the decision originated from a request by the clerk of the council for a decision reversing or confirming a ruling conveyed to him by one of my inspectors, which was to the effect that cards were being stamped in error. As regards the last part, I will have a further letter sent to the council explaining their position as the result of the decision.
