§ Mr. GROVESasked the Minister of Health if he will inquire into the circumstances attending the request of his Department to the Liverpool Victoria Friendly Society to forward the health insurance contribution cards of J. Furber, 41, Forest Lane, Stratford, E., No. V/657,662; and, as the retention of the cards is acting to the detriment of the insured person, whether he will expedite the inquiry and return of the cards?
Sir H. YOUNGI have inquired into the circumstances attending the retention of the National Health Insurance card referred to, and find that the card was required in connection with legal proceedings against the employer of the insured person. The card has been returned to the approved society, and all the benefit due has now been paid.
